Not this particular family, but I have one even more peculiar. Baptised as Priscilla in 1824. Marries as Lucy in 1845 Shown on 1851 Census as Lucy. Baptism of next to last Child in 1858 shown as Lucy. Baptism of Last Child in 1861 shown as Priscilla. Shown on 1861 Census as Priscilla. Buried in 1862 as Lucy. Apart from her name keep changing absolutely everything else matches, PoB, Age etc. So quite possible that Priscilla - Mother of Mary is in fact Penelope. Tim Treeby DFHS 13926.
