Thanks durhamgirl73
Could well be. I didn't think of the double LL. I had the name initially as McAverty but was not totally convinced.

After looking a little closer I wonder if the letters are not LL as the LL in Allen are different.

Another possibility is McAvetty.
He doesn't cross the 't's, see Phthisis in cause of death, and Stokes in the next record.
