I have an ancestor with the surname CASSEBEER. However she was adopted by a
STEINWAY family as a child. I recorded her surname as Cassebeer.
Some questions:
1. Do I record her surname as CASSEBEER followed by a parenthesis (Steinway)?
2. Do I record her surname as CASSEBEER but create and Event/Fact describing
her adoption and new surname STEINWAY? If so, any tree charts will not show
her name as STEINWAY.
3. He marriage record says that a STEINWAY (not a CASSEBEER) got married. Do I
include notes about her adoption in the Event/Fact MARRIAGE, etc.
