Hi Vanessa… I’m hoping you can help the tree by updating this profile to one surname only, to avoid using “or” in the profile name. People searching WikiTree using either of the surname variants are very unlikely to find this profile because the profile name contains 2 surnames. In situations like this I might suggest renaming the profile (last name at birth) to a single surname, and putting the alternate surname in the ‘Other Last Name’ field. By doing this, the likelihood of others finding this person/profile is much greater. Additional surname spellings might be included in the Biography section. This is only a suggestion as I have no direct knowledge of the family. Thank you!
