Correction Required

Hi

I came across this burial in a family grave:
FOY, Norah Stewart Brown (~, age 5 weeks).
Died at 225 Allen Street; Buried on March 26, 1885 in Consecrated ground;
Grave Number 103, Section J2 of Burngreave Cemetery, Sheffield.
Parent or Next of Kin if Available: . Remarks: 13313/28636.

This child's surname is actually FOX as per the GRO Birth Index for 1885:
FOX, NORAH STUART BROWN -
GRO Reference: 1885 M Quarter in SHEFFIELD Volume 09C Page 497

I don't know if this has been recorded incorrectly all those years ago, or if it's a transcription error. Is it possible to record the correct surname?

Hi Shelagh
It can be read either way on the original so I have amended to FOX
Thank you for letting me know
