Just a thought which you can knock down ..... have you tried reversing the names ?  I.e. Dorrien-Smith ?    There's lots of them on the Isles of Scilly ... in the past and still ...

Not knocking it down, but I already tried it with the GRO births, tried all variations I could think of - but have just realised didn't try Smith with D as the last initial of forenames....  Undecided

did you try that one Mary? (before I have another go!)

I'm looking for a female Smith-Dorrien - could be any combination of Mildred/Laura/Louisa born 1863 Berkhampstead, Herts.

Not too bad if Mildred is her first name...   just look under Smith, M then hope for a D for Dorrien after that

Trouble is she could be under L for Laura/Louisa too, a bit of trawling I'm afraid
(or maybe she just wasn't registered at all......)
