	Hi I have found a marriage on Wiltshire BMD for Frederick Baker to Eliza Sevin in 1859 at Colerne St John the Baptist Church, Can anyone please find Eliza in the 1841 or 1851 census she was born Chippenham c1835 give or take years. I can find her later with the Baker family. Some of the children were with mothers maiden name of Savin and some with Sevin. Many thanks Ken

	I'm not so good, JoP, I happen to have the cd's for British Vital Records Index. They allow me to look up all children of Thomas & Lucy in Langley Burrell with surname starting with S.

Member Since: July 2011 Posts: 73 Send Message	ha ha, i see! How do name changes like this come about? Very confusing!
Member Since: April 2004 Posts: 23,482 Send Message	MargaretM	Report	12 Oct 2011 12:43
	Name changes come about because very few people could read or write back then so they didn't know if their name had been mis-spelled.
