Interpretation

Commentary
The stone is highly abraded and the inscription can only be read in enhanced photographs. The first name is relatively clear in the enhanced photographs, but the second is much more difficult to read. The letter read as a m could potentially be a g or large s¹. Josef Bloomfield
