COMPLETED - Marchant/Merchant

Postby mallosa » Wed Mar 27, 2024 6:18 pm

I've been adding as Marchant according to their headstone inscriptions/census details and GRO records

but this looks like the same family

Should I go with the headstone Inscription of MARCHANT or with MERCHANT?

Yes that's makes sense, it's all a bit confusing though isn't it? :?
