Hi Thank you for that information. I have just emailed the owner of the Amerdee tree and am hoping that I will get a response. I am very excited about the prospect that I have finally solved the mystery of the Amerdy name that appears in my certificates. It would make sense now that I have re-read my ggrandmother's Wedding certificate and why Bridget had signed off on it as Amerdy and not Power. So does that mean that George has died? or Did he leave her? I presume that he has died as she re-married Eugene.

Hi Karen,
Do you have the marriage certificate of Alfred Henry HIGH, to Eileen Nellie ALLEN?
Name: Eileen Nellie Allan Spouse: Hy Alfd High Marriage: 1914 - Victoria
"I have searched for Grandmother's birth (Eileen Nellie Allen) and have come up empty, which makes me think that perhaps she wasn't registered. Although on her wedding Certificate it states her birth was in Preston and the same on her death certificate."
What are the names she states for her parents, in 1914, when she got married? What was her age at marriage? Who were the witnesses? ... maybe they are her siblings.
