When the surname is Sconza Testa, that's how it appears. When the name
change occurred I entered the remaining persons as Testa, so when it's
appropriate Sconza Testa prints and when it's Testa, that's what prints.

Ruth,
Do all of the Sconza Testa's appear in the index as Sconza Testa for a
surname or are they under Testa for the surname? It appears from the
reports you show that it is NOT recognizing the first part of the surname
and only recognizing the Testa.........which would mean that they had the
same surname.
Dual surnames are NOT all that unusual in Italy. They are very common in
Sicily. I have 5 different combinations in my tree alone. In order for
them to appear correctly in reports, I had to make sure that the surname
was entered correctly as as surname and not part in the surname and part
in the name field. This was expecially true from the files that were
gedcom'd from FTM which handles it differently than Legacy
