I know what you mean, you think you have a normal surname til someone can't spell. |

That is often the case I think. My maiden name has had some very strange spellings and OH's are even worse even to this day |

I suppose a lot of misspellings are due to the fact that some couldn't read or write was down to the one registering the event. |

Our lot are always changing the spelling just to keep me on my toes. The ones I am researching for the archive come from families with many branches of the same name :-S :-S |

That is what happens with me, there are various ways the surname was spelt but I got there in the end, my grandfathers surname was spelt 3 different ways on his marriage certificate. |
