Hi A big thank you to the people who helped me with my surname puzzle. It made me re-think & even more determined to solve the riddle. I managed to find her marriage (which I'd come to the conclusion didn't exist) on Ancestry & FreeBMD which both gave her surname as [HK] ect_up. I then went through the images on FreeBMD until I found the entry I was looking for "Bridget Hectrup". I have ordered a copy of the certificate to make sure that it is the marriage I'm looking for, but I'm positive it is. Thanks again, I may not have solved this without the inspiration you gave me Best wishes Teresa
