Hi Gerald, For a Calendar list, if you want both, you are going to have to keep doing what you are now OR see below. For other reports, if you've entered an AKA for the married name, both will show if you choose to include the AKAs.
The standard is to always enter with the maiden name. Also add the previous marriage and make sure you check the Husband list and put them in the right order using the arrow keys. If you don't know the previous husband's name, you at least usually know his surname. I show the name used at the time of the marriage in the source for the marriage. You could also add a Marriage Note saying she was a widow or divorcee at the time of the marriage. OR you are going to have to break the standards and enter with the married surname and use the Title Suffix field to add the maiden name- eg "nee Huffman" or "formerly Davies nee Huffman" Whatever you do it has to be clear to someone else. Just adding other surnames in brackets or just tagged on to the Given Names is confusing. Cathy gerald wrote: > > When I enter the names, I use the maiden name.
