	I would say it could quite possibly be a J....,comparing it with the J of John. It doesn't look the same as the T of Thomas on the next page. Gwyn

	I've been staring at it, Margaret, but I can't say one way or the other. It looks like the J in John but not like the one in Jane. Then again it looks like the J in the next Jane. How's that for a definite answer? Margaret
