Given name recorded on the 1881 Canada census (as a 2-year-old, in her father’s household) as ‘Mary’; every independently indexed FamilySearch record for this same household from adulthood onward (this 1902 marriage; also death/burial records not yet captured) carries ‘Rosa Mae’ or ‘Rosa’. Treated as a formal/informal given-name pair for one person, not a different-person conflict — identity is anchored by the exact match of parents (Francis Morrill/Olive ____, as ‘Frank Morrill’/’Mary O. Caswell’), siblings (Clarence, Gertrude, Isaac), and household composition (see citation on this record’s BIRT fact), not by name-recall search, which fails to connect the two forms.^[9]
