Cheri, Thank you for the lessons and your patience. So then Velma's mother Mary Conceicao - that is not her maiden name either?
Also, Velma's middle initial is showing as M on her 1st marriage in 1923. There is no initial specified on her marriage to Joe Hughes in 1933. On my birth certificate her middle initial is E not M. She must have had two or more middle names.
