Can anyone with an FMP sub look at the baptism of Anne Butter 4 Jan 1633 at Wrexham (in the Denbighshire Baptisms) and say what they think her parent's name is, please? FMP have transcribed it as Ewary but I'm not sure whether that's right.

I've had a look but can't help, except to say that it looks as if it starts with an S rather than an E and possibly ends with a y? No help from looking at other Butter baptisms either.

George??

Perhaps just "Georg"?

Now I have looked for other Butter baptisms and there seem to other children baptised to George Butter.

To me it looks longer than just George. Georgius? There is a Georgius Butter buried 16 June 1636 in Wrexham on FMP.

Thanks, everyone. George fits nicely with the other baptisms.
