Town/Village in Parish of Abercorn
« on: Friday 26 April 24 22:32 BST (UK) »
Hello

I have this (editted) image from the Parish of Abercorn. On the left side is the name of the village or town where the occupants' are situated. It is something like "Priestinel".

Can anyone read it or do you know of such a place? I can't find anything similar near Abercorn.

Thanks

Craig

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
