ah so we think that the spelling mistake is not only with the middle name appearing as A instead of E but now with the surname (did they not have spell checkers lol )

Thanks guys I will go and jot these down now thanks guys x

Im a little lost now as just checked some scribbles in the family diary and under there two names there are children and then the following names written

sarah
elizabeth
stephen
laura
Thomas Ellison
Margaret Mowat

So not sure if this is just names wrote or actuall children which makes me even more confused lol but do think its too much of a co incidence with the above
