Ancestry's transcribers can be a bit creative sometimes; I agree it looks like "Fanny" - it's not even like the way that enumerator writes his Rs. If the dob wasn't quite accurate then FreeBMD has a couple of possibilities for Bernard's birth, given that the district of West Ham is probably within earshot of the Bow bells!

Wife's name looks like Fanny to me but has been transcribed on Ancestry as Tarry !

Hi Sheena, Thanks for confirming my thinking. Think that 1891 Census also confirms it. garet Regards, Margaret
