Your thoughts please

Any suggestions welcome for the brides name in the highlighted line. I've posted the whole page for comparison.

 

[MollyMay]

Alis (Alice) ?

 

[Sis]

Alis (Alice) ?

That was my thought. Any offers on her surname?

 

[MollyMay]

I hoped you weren't going to ask that

I think the first letter is a D (as in December a few rows underneath), then ram something r or e - so
Dram?r/e
I cannot think of anything that would fit though

 

[janetbooth]

Alce CHAMPE??

Janet

 

[AnnB]

Alce CHAMPE??

Janet

I agree with Janet

 

[arthurk]

I was going to suggest Champe too, before I read Janet and Ann's posts.

I also agree that the first name looks like a variant of Alice, but I think it might be spelled Alce.

 

[Archie's Mum]

Richard Seager and Alce Champe according to FS.
Rochester Kent, 29th December 1668.

 

[Genie1]

The first letter of her surname looks like a J or a D.

 

[burt]

The first letter is without any question a capital 'C'.
I read it as Champe.

I looked at December as well.

Here's a larger version, with contract slightly increased.



(I'd wondered about asking for a larger image, but thanks to @Archie's Mum providing the location I managed to get it myself.)

 

[Sis]

Thanks everyone, I agreed with it being Alce Champe too. Just wanted confirmation.
