Never mind "some day". :(

"he was born under fathers first name and used name is his second"

You mean like ... he was born John James Smith and known as James Smith?

But the big question is -- what surname is given for his mother!?!

Actually, this was hardly one of my better magic tricks - I did a search at FreeBMD for Albert whatsit marrying Daisy M. Just in the right place at the right time - you probably just missed it by a couple of weeks of transcribing.

Now you're going to get the marriage certificate, right? For Daisy's father's name? And you'll come back and tell us, and whatever else you find?

Yes - nosy!! Big nose to go with big head.
