Surname is 'McElroy'. But the Christian name?

It's a difficult one!! Can you put more of the certificate up so we can see the flow of his handwriting and style.

Hugonis = Hugh

Thanks Barbara and rt. Hugh seems right. I haven't seen that one before.

Hugh??

I couldn't see that at all I thought the first letter was an "S"

I couldn't see what it was... but I should have noted the similarity to the 'H' of 'Henry'.

Wow I would never have made H out of that, those priests have a lot to answer for
