This woman should have the name of both Herd & Thomson as well as being a Duncan.  For some reason it is not shown.  Why is that?

Hi E,

It does show the name Thomson when I view it...

"Elizabeth Herd formerly Duncan aka Hird, Thomson"

Is that not good?
It shows the same way Keith said for me also.
Okay, see it, but it doesnt give her married name at the top.  Doesn't matter as most women probably went by their maiden name when buried, but it seemed odd to me.  Thank you so much as I am a bit jumpy after finding all the errors made recently in the Duncan file.
It is displaying the names the way you told it to.
I realize that, but was not sure if it is correct?  No thst is not true, I can see the name underneath & may have gone off the deep end when viewing it as only saw Elizabeth Duhcan aka Herd?  Tried to fix it, but it doesn't matter.  Got caught up reading about all the problems you people are having with questions & the way people are doing thihgs so maybe jumped the gun a bit.a  Am not all that computer literate so trying to do everything correct but know I have made numerous errors.  Thank youi for taking the time to answer me.
The funny thing about computers is that they will always do exactly what you tell them to do.  the problem is what you tell them to do may not be exactly what you want them to do.  :)
Very funny - always trying to tell the computer whaat to do but get many errors anyway - nothing like blaming the machine when its yourself at fault. }:
When I was programming there was only one time that the fault was not something I did, and that was because another human removed all of the files I needed to run my program, so yes it is easier to bame the computer. but when it comes to computers it is always either the human, either Programmer or data entry, that is at fault. :D
