Sondra: Thanks for your "2 cents worth"! Yes I've found this true many times in my researching, even on the same document, my Grandfather's name was changed 3 times. I am very glad to see a note added to the marriage license I was concerned about. Thanks very much Jessie and Beverly!!! I would be very happy to see you post the HILLS and GRAVES of Louisa Co. as they are joined with each other, and with the YOCUMS. My sincere Thanks.
