Thanks, Tessa78. I’ve seen the surname with the apostrophe at the end of and sometimes above the O.
I want to make sure I note it correctly. Hopefully I can find a related record to confirm the spelling as it applies to my family.

The mark is over the "o" - Sgrò
Some keyboards will not put it over the "o" so you get an apostrophe after :-)
