Hi jerseylily,

Could it be Hazell? it looks a bit like the Y's on the next page but I'm going to have another look...

Findmypast has it as Hayell

It could also be Hafell or even Hafsell?

Kind regards,

Cathy

Can someone please take a look at the image on the following census return and tell me what they think the grandson Henry's surname is?

1891 Channel Islands
Class: RG12; Piece: 4697; Folio 112; Page 1; GSU roll: 6099807.

Head of House - Richard Buemel (tho should be Buesnel)

Many Thanks
