    3. Janine - This name is clearly PIERIE. Have looked for PETRIE, unelss one of these enumerators hen scratchings clears up and becomes PETRIE, there are none on these extra sheets . Apologies ! The only other ' P ' listing is for PEACE. Creative thinking is a necessity when reading some of these names ! I have used the Cursiter site to help me get possibilities for a few - like VELZIAN ! MLSOU becomes WILSON, COSMO might become COCK, BRAION will probably be BROWN, but why is the 'dot' there? My HALCRO was listed as HALERS. There is a name that looks like CASKEY, but that ' K ' is strange. the legs that kick out are really more of a squiggle resembling a ' 3 '. Looks like an ' h ' with a kinked right leg ! And it is written precicely this way 6 times in a row. He was Minister of the Orphir Parish. Guesses are welcomed !!! Look at the listings for PIERIE, and if they are a good fit for your PETRIE family - eMail me, I can easily send a scan - or I can do it anyway if you want to see what it really looks like. Easily done. - Meg Greenwood
