But if she had been married and widowed before and had married James, but the record got lost, then her previous surname and maiden name would most likely appear on her childs birth cert. I am always suspicious when the 'wife' is more than a couple of years older than her husband, there's no marriage and she is 'missing' from a census when in her early 20s!!
