What is the time difference between the two signatures?

My initial thought is that they are not the same person - there are enough differences . . . . But, Could be the time difference.

I could be wrong - often am!   

Wiggy.

Thank you. They are different signatures, however, the top image looks like both Robert's and Eliza's signatures have been written by the same hand.

[mckha489]

No, I don’t think eliza and Roberts signatures were written by the same hand,

Wiggy there are 25 years between the signatures.

I think there are quite a few common features. And as the baby baptised had parents Robert and Eliza it does fit.

[Osserick]

Ah yes, this image is better and you can see they are written by a different hand.

Major points of difference are the Rs at the beginning and end of the signatures .... the middle bits look fairly similar.

[Wiggy]

25 years could explain the differences then, couldn't they.
