Priscilla, You enter females using their maiden name. If you select the option to “include married names” on the Name List, you will see them under both names. If you see her name on a document with her married name then you can add it as an AKA. You shouldn’t arbitrarily add someone’s married name to the AKA field unless you have a source for it.
Each person only has one Individual Information page.

For example, Mary Smith is her maiden name. Her first husband was John Jones and her second husband was Harry Thompson. Do I have only one Individual Information Page for "Mary Smith" that includes all events in her life,even those events occurring during her marriages and under her married names? Or do I create three Individual Information Pages, one for each surname that she used in her lifetime? Many thanks! P.
