I would like to add a comment to the following announcement that was made earlier this week. This would more accurately be stated as a POSSIBLE maiden name. Very few obituaries actually gave a maiden name. To compensate, we decided that if there was a surname of a parent or a brother listed, we would include this surname in the maiden name field. However, a mother may have remarried, etc. In other words, the maiden name field is a clue that needs verification.
