Renes

not sure whether Amy Dorrifield and James Atkins are living in the same house or not

it isn't very clear


but you have to look for a marriage between a Palmer and a Dorrifield or Dorrofield.


Name change for Amma Dorrifield has the following note:-

#
Amy Dorrofield rather than Amma Dorrifield
Believe this to be Amy/Amy, wife of Thomas Dorrofield, who is living married but without wife at the Pest House, Croxley, Rickmansworth in this census. See also 1851 census at Croxley, Rickmansworth.

Syl


I went off to see what was on the original --- and to see what the error note was about

and the marriage looks correct -- they had a daughter Ann born 1847

so she would have been 20

So thanks very much -------------xxxxx

It only came up with the head of the household will they alter the wife and kids too?

I don't know about fmp



ancestry asks if you want to apply the name change to other members of the household



I ahve heard that fmp is not as good as ancestry about making the changes, or rather making note of the change
