Joel Morin,
First, thank you for your attention to detail. I appreciate the help with the Acadian branches!
You are correct This is an attempt to add one of her husband's surnames as her own surname. The other name entry is an apparent nickname to which I find no reference.
As you are likely well aware, French women did not take on their spouse's surname as their own when married. I see too often, users wanting to change female's birthnames to their husbands surname at the time of marriage. It is preferable to add this information in the AKA field if one fells it necessary.
Subsequently, I have moved the extraneous names to the AKA field. The only time I will completely delete this type of information is if it is obviously incorrect or a duplicate of the names already entered for that profile.
I have been trying to correct all profiles similar to the one you reference. Your help in doing the same is greatly appreciated.
Again, thank you!
Problem with this page?
