A woman's maiden name is the name she was BORN with - that doesn't change, no matter how many times she marries

Because its mothers maiden name not her previous married name that is recorded on the birth cert

Just a thought..................

Marriages Sep 1917 (>99%)
Beard Arthur Smitten N Forest 2b 1607
Smitten Emma L Beard N.Forest 2b 1607

No birth for Emma Smitten on freebmd

Could the L in her name be LOWE?

Dont forget this was War time so Stanley may not have been born in Hampshire but was stationed there

ErikaH Report 18 Jul 2012 21:53

As the marriage was towards the end of WW1, it may be that the lady had been married before

The birth cert will provide the answers.........the census will not. The last one available is 1911
