I wasn't sure about that Karen, thank you for letting me know about women using their middle names and not their surnames. In fact I just asked that very question on another thread. That's going to make it tricky to find out my great-grandmothers last name I guess!
Sorry I couldn't be of help. I live about 40 minutes from Cambridge now so if there is something you need to visit the church for, I may be able to do that for you.
