Roots: Quiz Time

In the August-September 2010 issue of Canada’s History, Paul Jones notes that genealogists have their work cut out for them if ancestors have adopted new spellings of their names, or have changed them entirely (“Hey Mac... or is it Mc?”).

However, if your ancestor is a performer, those changes are well-documented.

How many of the following can you match with their stage names?

1. Gladys Marie Smith
2. Monte Halparin
3. Michael A. Fox (yes, “A”)
4. David Henry Thomsett
5. Louis Weingarten
6. Eilleen Regina Edwards
7. Roberta Joan Anderson
