Can someone please help?
I am trying to research an ancestor's parents. He is, Charles Dew born 1817 in Salisbury, died in 1880 London St. Pancras. He married in Salisbury December 1840 Hannah Tabor/Taber. From what I can find, it seems as though his father was Edward Amor b. 1797 in Laverstock Wiltshire and his mother's name was Ann. Was it possible for a couple to marry and adopt the bride's name (in this case Dew) as opposed to the groom's name? Have I confused myself and gone down a blind alley? I have looked on the GR sites and Ancestry, and maybe Edward Amor's father is Robart/Robert Amor who married Mary Dew, but not sure when.
Is "Amor" as a name, a euphemism for illegitimacy? I'd very much like hear if anyone has any ideas.
