I'll agree with that - Tailoress.
Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!
If you don't ask the question, you won't get an answer.

The double 's' at the end of tailoress uses the old system for a double 's'

My gt grandfather's name was Ross and it looked odd when I first saw how he had signed his marriage certificate.

Then there are those who are adamant that names like 'Agness' are in fact 'Agneff'!
