Help to read Copperplate

Post by tubazilla »

Hi please can someone help me to read the placename in the attached png file.

It has been incorrectly listed as Cummviston (which does not exist). It s a placename in Cumberland I just cannot find anything that is a close match.

The source document is the 1851 Census for an ancestor of mine William Atkinson and shows him living with his daughter Grace who was born in Maryport.

Thanks in advance!
