Just curious. Why do some of the obits for spouses whose title was due
to a marriage mention the father's name and not the mother's? As in:
"She was Edna, daughter of William Edward Fowler, of Harborne,
Birmingham, and married in 1952 ... "

BTW - My spell check attempted to change 'Harborne' to Harpoon. Glad I
caught it ;-)b

Some reference books give details of the mother. I've checked Burke's,
Debrett's, Who's Who & they only give details of the Lady Castle
Stewart's Papa.
