Help with deciphering, please.....

Another entry I am having problems with, would someone look at the death entry of Hannah Orr, her mothers christian & maiden name, the maiden surnames looks like Brannan, but I have no idea what the christian name is.

Thanks for any assistance

Hi Kathy

I thought at first it was Verity but enlarging it made it clear that Jean's Unity is best guess.

Thank you for the replies, I did initially think Verity, but I would never have picked Unity.
