I appreciate your help. I apologize because I know it's fuzzy. I've tried
everything within my ability to improve it. I just don't have the knowledge.
Thank you for trying.

Hi Marjorie
It is hard to see. I have made it as big as it is going to be I think. .I
am usually good at this because was in the antique business and read old
writing often. But I cannot ID for sure the column where she is. But I do
see a Jessie which is the female form of Jesse. There is a link in
Ancestry.com or RootsWeb or possibly Cyndi's that is good visual info about the old
style writing. It helped me decipher my mother's birth certificate which
was written by my grandfather.

The link is posted below.
Line # 76 - The child is the 'Jarvis' female born on November 1, 1870 at
Porter Township.
It was transcribed by
Ancestry.com as 'Thomas' and that isn't correct.
She's definitely female. I know what I think it is but don't want to cloud
anyone's perception.
The first letter of the name is not like any other on the page. Any
ideas?

If anyone wants me to say what I think/want it to be I will but don't want
to persuade any thoughts.
Thank you, one and all.
Marjorie
