I know you're from Bedfordshire and probably don't get out much but do you really think it's unusual for a wife to have the same surname as her husband?

Good point! Why didn't I think of that.

I foolishly assumed the family tree adhered to the usual practice of noting the wifes family name not her married name which actually doesn't provide much value information wise.

But your probably right, there is no reason to suppose MTW2 follows this practice. The proof will be in checking what happens in the case of an arranged marriage with a princess of royal blood to see if it changes her name also.

Oh, and do you mean Anglesey, rather than Anglesea?

Well, I mean both or either, but not the Anglesea, in Victoria, Australia obviously.

Anglesey or Anglesea (both: ăng'gəlsē) , island and county (1985 est. pop. 68,800), 278 sq mi (719 sq km), NW Wales. Beaumaris is the chief town. It is a region of low, rolling hills. The principal industries are agriculture and stock raising. Two bridges over the Menai Strait connect the island to the mainland. The town of Menai Bridge has long been a stock-trading center for NW Wales. Anglesey is said to have been the last refuge of the druids from the Romans in Britain. Penmynydd, at the center of the island, was the home of Owen Tudor, founder of the house of Tudor.
