may well be, that the name was also altered, as there are so many different ways to spell a name, plus on top of that some people including registrars can make mistakes, for example on my birth certificate, my mothers maiden name is MORDEN, but the correct spelling is MORTON.... ;-) ;-)

Bewick, Jennings, Parkinson, Wright, Bell, Morton, Potts, Burn, Muckle
