Subject: Alias Name on Marriage Certificate
Author: supernurse61
Date: Monday, December 30, 2013
Classification: Marriage
Surnames:
I have come across something strange whilst researching my partners family tree. His 4 x great grandmother appears to have used an "alias" name on her marriage certificate. This has meant that I have hit a dead end as I cannot find which is her correct name. She is down on the marriage certificate as "Frances Chapman - alias Beck" her father is down as William Chapman and is also down as widowed.
There are children with the surnames of Beck and Brown (surname of the man she married on the marriage certificate) however I cannot find a marriage certificate for her and a Beck?
I have attached the marriage certificate.
