Hi, can someone help with the first name of this chap - seventh name from the top left hand page? Appears to be an abbreviation. Thanks!

Hi @PatrickCox6 -- I think Wilson, Thos - Thos is abbreviation for Thomas in the states --Cheerio!😎

Thanks @maryellenstevensbarnes1. I still find T, I & J very confusing! They are so similar, and the s at the end of Thos is pretty bizarre! But it all keeps my brain active! 😀
