After searching everywhere to find any thing more than a birth for Millie E hargreaves born Lewisham 1920 I came across Mellora E hargreaves married a Richard Fiore in Lewisham in1944 is there any way I can find out if this is the same person with a name change. I cant find a birth for Mellora so thats what makes me think it could be the same person.

Hi Jayne
I think your hunch is right but getting the marriage cert with Millie/Mellora's name on it should confirm/deny it. Lots of brides in my and my husband's family tree seem to have changed their names to something grander on their marriages. I have an Annie who becomes Elizabeth Anne, a Rose who becomes Rosella etc.

Hi Jayne, i googled the name Fiore and it seems to be italian, i wonder if she left England and went there to live, maybe a possibility,
If it is the same person I don't think it will help to get the marriage certificate as Millies father died in 1939, 5 years before the marriage so he will not be on the certificate

If it is the right person she remarried in 1968 to a Percy Daffin but dont know how to find out if its the right person
I noticed on free bmd theres a lot of Fiore marriages
Hello
I have pm'd you as this person may still be living.
The marriage register entry quite clearly shows MELLORA E so it is unlikely that the actual cert will show anything different.
What I have sent you gives the forname associated with the E, so it is probably the birth cert of Millie E that will help you decide if the person has adopted a new first name this will also give you her fathers name!
The marriage cert would confim the father's name...so unless what I have found helps, it looks like 2 certs
