ALERTThere is an identically named person that I am about to enter as a new profile. When I enter it, I will use William James Ferguson for the sequence of names. They are NOT the same person. If this profile had a bio and readible sources, it would prevent a recurrence of mismatch issues.

Wife: Can anyone share an image of the birth certificate or record for his wife?

Name discrepancy: Lassie or Lessie and Oakley or Hoxit

There is a Lessie Oakley living with a wiidowed mother, Elizabeth Oakley.

There is also this same grave stone shown for James W with wife Lessie I Hoxit Ferguson.

If her maiden name was Oakley, how did she acquire surname Hoxit?
