Difficult to Recognize Character

[Glenn]

This is sort of amazing, I just saw the other thread with the same sort of questions, but anyway, here's mine. I'm having problems with a character in this text. Here's what I've got: 縁組養父母?縁組承諾 (albeit the 諾 is at the top of the next line). The question mark is the problem. It sort of looks like 人, but that doesn't seem to work. I thought maybe a really screwed up の, but that's seeming not so plausible. Can anyone make this out? Thanks.

Nevermind. Feel free to delete this post. I still need the above (first) one answered, though.

It looks to me like 及（および）

Ooooo, that seems to make sense. At least it works in the context, and I could see that as being 及. Thanks!
