Henderfon and Henderson


This snippet of a newspaper clipping (from  Genealogybank.com) comes from an item I mentioned in an earlier blog post. The last name of the murder victim serves as a good reminder for those of us using digital images of newspapers--Henderson certainly "looks like" Henderfon.

Is is possible that the last or first name for which you are looking could have a letter or two that look like other letters in an older style of font or print?

Henderfon isn't the only one!
