    Could be Blain, Salem or possibly Blain, Jalem as the name below John the letter seems to hook the same as the j in John.

    Glad you didn't ask us to do the last name on the list. That's impossible!

    I'm going with Blain, Benjamin, Blain "most likely a Biblical name" and Blain, John - the guy who didn't pay any taxes!?!

    Ealem Blain is what I'm going with.

    There are other "J"s on the page, so I don't think it starts with a "J."
