Would someone please take a look at Isabella Smith at
RG14PN9641 RG78PN513A RD188 SD9 ED8 SN292 and let me know what the place of birth is?
Is it Germany as showed in the search box section or is it Guernsey as it looks like Guernsey in the original image.

Thanks
Gail

Says she was born in Ford, Richmond - although Isle of Guernsey seems to be there also.....not sure what it's supposed to convey
