Merrison is crossed out and JONES is written above- difficult to see the date the change was made, but it could be 17/2/48

The name Elizabeth was added in 1956

Re the closed records:

"Individuals’ records remain closed for 100 years from their date of birth (100 year rule). Records remain closed for people born less than 100 years ago until proof of death is verified. As more records become open as a result of the 100 year rule, more records will become available to search and view online at Findmypast. "

It looks like George and Bessie had quite a few children, so I would imagine the closed records are for them.
