Need some help/advice please.

I have always struggled to find a birth for Maureen. Not helped by the fact that family were Irish Catholics living in India. I have found her marriage certificate to Mr Jessop and her death certificate.

On her marriage certificate she is listed as being Maureen O'Gorman but Andrew O'Gorman was her step father and not her father. I believe she is the child of Clara Louisa Maile (who later married Andrew O'Gorman) and Charles Walter McMorran

Today on the probate search I found the entry for her probate - but it says - Jessop, Maureen Louise otherwise Mary Louise. I have ordered the will/probate but wonder if anyone knows why she would be listed like this.

Thanks

Nicki
