Afternoon all. This will get the braincells working!
On the 1939 census, Charlotte and Ivan have 4 children, May, William, Eliza and Shirley with one record closed. When I had a look at the actual form, May is "May Haywood", Eliza is "Eliza Smith"
,and Shirley is "Shirley Marriot". Any explanations anyone, please? I thought adopted....evacuees...?
Many thanks
Maggie

The 1939 register (Not a census) was updated until the 1990's as it was used by the NHS. Womens surnames were amended when they married.
