Does that part of the family have Jewish connections? It looks as if it could be Yentil, once the downstrokes from Stephen have been eliminated.

Katie
Ill have a look on the 1911 census and see if she shows up.

If I'm right , it certainly demonstrates the problems encountered by transcribers!
That Katie could be rendered as Yentil, or Tra..., or Yratie, really makes the point.

I will let you know if it turns out to Katie
DannyComment

Actually... I suppose it makes the point even more if she turns out not to have been Katie! That would be another wrong possibility to add to the list.

PS - Yes - I'd should be grateful to know what her name turns out to be, now that I'm intrigued!Researching: BENNETT (Leics/Birmingham-ish) - incl.

Doesn't look much like Katie to me!
I was wondering if it was her father Patrick but he had written it in the Irish way and the clerk had not been able to read it properly himself and just made a stab at it.

I have seen fancy capital K's that shape in other documents. And the person who wrote out the certificate was given to big loopy flourishes above other capital letters.Uncle John - Passed away March 2020Comment

Could it be Trotie? I googled for that and it does seem to be a surname.Comment

Nah its defo not Trotie.
If Irish family history was the same as english family history im 100% sure that this would be wrapped up lol.
