The Common Room / change of surname
« on: Wednesday 31 January 18 15:49 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to find a change of surname for a James Donovan/Turner between 1911 and 1916 born Pontypool Monmouthshire 1892 registered at birth as Donovan, "mothers maiden name".
His mother margaret donovan marries his father william turner June 1895 James seems to be registered twice June 11a 178, and Dec 11a 165; 1891 census he's turner, 1911 census he's Donovan. James marries Ethel Gill June 1916 under his father name Turner.
Would this have been an illegal marriage without legal change of surname. Any help in locating change of name would be appreciated

Cork / donovans born schull cork c 1827
« on: Wednesday 03 January 18 12:13 GMT (UK) »
I started a topic on the Monmouthshire wales board (Birth place of Joanna cante/caute c 1849)
On the 1851 census Dennis Donovan and Mary Donovan give their place of birth as Schull, County Cork Ireland. Mary sappears to have left ireland pre 1848 and JOANNA CANTY mmn DONAVAN was born 1848 Sept q in MAIDSTONE Kent, Volume 5 Page 351. It appears that Mary Donovan first went to London/Kent area met Mr Canty and had Johanna, the relationship seems to have not worked out and Mary ends up in Pontypool Monmouthshire and marries Dennis Donovan. I have a feeling that Mary and Dennis are first cousins. Are there any records for Schull, county cork, that may prove they are related. The potato famine started in early 1845 so it appears just after this they left Ireland. Are there any emigration records. Could Mary have travelled over with Mr Canty? Any help here would be appreciated
