Not uncommon and sometimes happens with marriages too, where the bride has been married before.

There is only one registration - hence the same reference number - it is just that each of the names is indexed separately.

After many years searching, we found a record of OH's grandfather sailing into England in 1950s with a new wife.
He predeceased her, but wanting to know more about her, we sent for her later death certificate too.

I was really surprised when it arrived, as it showed her with a different surname. Searches on Ancestry indicated a later remarriage for her as a widow and so a change of surname.Her previous married name was recorded somewhere on the death certificate, although the registration was in her later married name.
Ancestry shows a record of the registration in both names with the same reference numbers.

I would imagine the cert. states;
Cherry Evans AKA Cherry Stamate.
Now why she was registered using both names may be down to the informant.

I have just found a relative's death has been registered in both her married names have never found this before , I went to the cemetary today to see if the MI could give me a few more details and found the following plus some info I already had

On MI it says
In fondest memory of
Mac Nacamura

fell asleep 19th April 1965
Wife
Minnie
at peace
13th June 1988
loving daughter Cherry
always remembered

It also has a stone added In everlasting memory of Cherry Evans
who passed to glory on 19th Dec 1994 age 68 a wonderful and caring wife mother and grandmother

I found that Cherry had married Nicolas Stamate in 1944, I dont know (yet) if he died or they divorced after seeing the grave stone looked and found her remarried to Ieuan H Evans March 1990, but when I looked at her death I have found she is registered in as both Cherry Evan and Cherry Stamate and both have the same numbers , is this usual have never come across it before
