	The best way to find out Daniel's mother's maiden name would be to purchase a copy of his birth cert. The problem is, there does not appear to be a birth registered for him.

	Do you know for certain if Daniel had any siblings? If so......you could check to see if any of their births were registered.

	Try looking for info at.......................... https://familysearch.org/ What evidence does your friend have to support the idea that the surname was changed? And when would that have been?
Member Since: June 2007 Posts: 31 288 Send Message	PricklyHolly	Report	18 Sep 2013 09:25
	Can you confirm if the 1851 census i posted is the correct family??
