    I've managed to get the birth cert for a relative. Can anyone help read the mothers maiden name and qualification and name of the informant.
    In particular the text after Bridget Douglas?

    Mother's maiden name looks like Rowley.
    Text after Bridget Douglas reads her mark so presumably she couldn't write.
    Then Present at Birth.
    Address looks like Ravenswell Row, Bray.

    Thanks Hermy. I was kinda hoping it wasn't Rowley or Rawley. It means I may have gone down the wrong track as the baptism info is Lowrey.

    The R in Rowley looks just like the R in Ravenswell so I don't think it's Lowrey unless there's a spelling mistake.
