Very well put, Muriel - too many newcomers dismiss possible candidates because the spelling isn't write - sorry, right :-) - without realising what you explained. In collecting my Micklethwaites, I've found over 200 variations, many caused by mis-transcription, another great source of confusion! Some search engines allow for name variation, but others don't - so it helps to think laterally about possible mis-spelling. Best Wishes, Andy.
