Thanks John!
Well actually I am german .... :hmmm:
That "w" that starts out like an "n" you mean?
It was just getting out of fashion when I learned to write.
Some kept it, some didn't. I think its a remnant of Sütterlin.
The "Z" is a bit odd as well.
The rest is normal script typography.

If you asked me my first guess the first letter would be a capital "F". We were taught traditional cursive and that looks exactly like it. I was gonna guess Ervingberg but then the r's are inconsistant.... but this is okay because I believe in some cases you have the down stroke like a print r (up down up over into next letter), others you just have the over stroke (up over into next letter)

that "w" still bugs me though...

Look at it here:
Sütterlinschrift – Wikipedia
LOL maybe they changed it once the telegraph worked and they found out you guys call it a "double U", hehehe
We had to learn this one in school!
Helped reading grandma's recipes :)
