I have numerous cases of women on my tree who gave the wrong mmn when registering their children (I'm only speaking of definite proven cases here) right up to the 1950s. In most cases they did everything right in the first marriage, but in the second marriage they gave their previous married name as their maiden name. So, could she have been Miss X who married a Mr Samuel and then moved on to Mr Williams? You would obviously expect to see those first two children registered under Samuel with mmn X in that case. No doubt you have already looked at this, but I'm just adding it here because I'm putting of having a third stab at my DNA matches!!
