Hi, just wondered if anyone has any ideas on what this name may be? Just got it from lds so I haven't seen the original writing. Thanks for reading. Jen

Hi, thanks. It's a Joseph Ramskiln married to Mary Ann Pickard on 23/11/1806. She was born 31/12/1786 in Kippax, Yorks. Any help greatly appreciated. Jen xx

searching Ancestry with wildcard thus:- RAMSK* plenty of Yorkshire names like Ramskell, Ramsker, Ramskill, Ramskin, Ramsking, Ramskir ..... The only place your variation showed was the same records you quote above ... good hunting !
