Help deciphering places please

[Timetraveller77]

Hi rootschatters, hoping someone with better handwriting deciphering skills can help me read the county name and Parish name on this 1876 document please?

I know the persons name "Thomas Barrett" and the word "Deceased" but am struggling with the Parish name and location, and the 'residence at time of marriage'.
This was registered in the Hungerford district, Counties of Berkshire, Hampshire and Oxfordshire.

The married couple lived at Peppard in 1881, so I am pretty sure that is part of the location name for their residence, but any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance.

Hungerford?

Hi Kay,

Yes, Hungerford is the registration district as entered into the GRO index.
Is that what you were meaning?

[Kay99]

Sorry - I meant that Hungerford was his place of residence at the time of marriage

If it helps this is a list of the parishes in the Registration District of Hungerford https://www.ukbmd.org.uk/reg/districts/hungerford.html

I see Hungerford as well, but the writer puts odd breaks in it:

Hung erford  in Berk Shire.

Just noticed that the writer of the cert has changed the heading of the cert to read -- in the Counties rather than County and then listed the counties of Berk + Wilt.   It looks like the parish of Hungerford straddles the county boundary https://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/WIL/Hungerford

Thank you so much for your insight. It certainly looks like Hungerford (written as you say with 'gaps').

Thanks again Kay.   I had a good read through the list of Parishes, but my amateur eye didn't spot anyting that would match the document writings....nevermind. I am satisfied that it appears to be Hingerford, in the "Counties" of Berkshire (and other?)
