Could I not just get a certificate, instead of getting a name change-That would require a lot of paper-work-driver's license, bank acct. mail, health ins, etc.-Shirley

Good evening,Thanks for asking for me.You won't be changing your name to your birth certificate name, but to the name you have been using all these years from your birth certificate name. Once that is done, everything will be the same. This process is just a way of having to locate a marriage license/certificate.As for getting a certificate, what certificate are you referring to?Doug
marriage certificate from 1954
Good evening,I thought that we discussed that and that you determined that it was not possible: The man at the courthouse,(Register of Wills) said it was up to me to get the certificate from the J.P. in Plymouth and have it registered at the courthouse. that was in 1950-(a long time ago)I'm sure, the j.p. is passed away. He was old at the time".Clearly, if you know a way to get the marriage license/certificate, it would solve your problem.I don't mean to be dense, but am I missing something here?Doug
No, not missing anything-Have tried lots of ways, but to no end. Thank you and I will be trying your suggestion-Shirl
Good evening,All right Shirl---I really do think that the Name Change is your only legal remedy if you can't come up with the marriage license/certificate. Best of luck in getting that accomplished in short order!Have a great week ahead,Doug
