I had the same problem a year or two ago. Mother died many years ago, then
daughter died two years ago, both on the one notice, a memorial notice,
from memory I think Pauline advised to treat it as two separate notices, I
can't recall the names now otherwise I would look it up to let you know if
that was the way we did it.

Is that right, Bill? I see your reasoning, but you can't put in
somebody else's name and call it the first person's alternative name.
That way, the "alternative" details of death, etc., won't appear in the
Index. Both have the same surname, so there should be no problem
finding them both. Subject to Margaret's query about one being too old,
I would index both separately. Since both appear in the same Notice,
it might look a bit odd indexing only one.

Dear Margaret,
Assuming the notices are in the Deaths column each name will have to
be mentioned, but the second one should be an alternative name as
that name will be found by looking at the first name.
Regards, Bill
John how do I index this notice. I know you said if a death was 12
months or
more ago leave it. This one has two relations on the same notice.
They are having a joint memorial notice but do I index the two
deaths as one is more
than 12 months ago.Margaret
