I was wondering what the best or recommended practice is with recording surnames changing
One person is in the 1841 and 1851 census with one spelling of the surname, and in 1861 and subsequent with the 'new' spelling.
I'm ok with the children's names being the 'new' spelling, but what would be the best way to record the different spellings and when they changed for an individual?
Cheers,
Graeme
