The name Marjorie or Margery orginated as a diminutive of Margaret. See http://www.whatsinaname.net/

It is sometimes abbreviated to May, and May also occurs as a variant of Mary.

All very confusing!
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
