They are on my husband's side of the family, and they have pretty much zero interest in genealogy. I has been my experience with other families that I have researched, that you will almost always find multiple ways of spelling a name. Keep in mind that often immigrants couldn't read or write and when they arrived here and told someone what their names were, that person would spell it the best way they knew how, and often that spelling would stick, or it could change the next time some wrote it down.
