John's surname

Surname of the witness John - transcribed on Freereg as Scotchmer

The "S" doesn't look the same as the S of Solomon to me.  But Am willing to be over-ruled

It's available on FindMyPast - Chatham St Marys marriages but no Ks  on the pages in that cleric's hand that I can see. There seem to be Kitcheners in the area.

I also read it at Scotchman or possibly Scotchmer.
