    Yes, that's normally OK when it's for the purposes of getting help with deciphering.

    Or to save space you could snip it, to show just the relevant entry and some surrounding context.

    Ah I'm being silly as usual.
    I have just realised by going and looking through more examples that the P is placed before the maiden name of the mother and it only appears with births.
    I will now go and stand in a corner.
    Cheers

    Ah, well done!

    Probably P stands for prius = formerly.
