I have an ancestor born Weaver, he changed his name to White in order to re-enlist in the army, having previously deserted and wanted to get back in. He used the name White. When he married (for the first time aged 36????) he called himself White Weaver and used this name almost to the grave. His first child was registered as Nellie White Weaver, but the others were registered just as Weaver. |
