I have an ancestor called Acquila Cornes Wilkes, I think his parents can't have liked him much :)

Since Arsba only exists in 1861 its a mistranscription, but I just HAD to look at the image. I must say I think the transcriber deserves a medal for being able to decipher ANYTHING on the page. Definitely not the best writing I've seen.
