      I however am not satisfied with the certainty for the spelling of her maiden name.

      Thanks. Steve Schmidt which way would you put her name on her profile?
      Hi Donnie,

      I would almost suggest if you was going to create a profile for her that you would use a Unknown as the Maiden name. And use other last name as Huckbes. I believe the source is good however I could not find any further documentation at this time with that surname. However I do believe that this is now a policy and style question and it appears that it is hard to know how they had the last name spelled in there time with so little sourced information. (I hope this made sense)
      Thanks Steve
