Notes for Olive Margaret Nelly Pilcher
Her birth:

Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Births Mar 1899   (>99%)
Pilcher Olive Margaret N Richmond, S. 2a 431
________________

Either of these two marriages could be hers:

Surname First name(s) Spouse District Vol Page
Marriages Dec 1924   (>99%)
Chapple John D Pilcher Kensington 1a 352   
Pilcher Olive M N Chapple Kensington 1a 352

Marriages Sep 1930   (>99%)
Chapple Olive M N Stevenson Hampstead 1a 1913   
Pilcher Olive M N Stevenson Hampstead 1a 1913   
Stevenson James D Chapple Hampstead 1a 1913   
Stevenson James D Pilcher Hampstead 1a 1913

The answer has to be, from the second marriage, that both were hers and that the index is confused, in the second, between her maiden and her married name.  So what happened to Chapple?

There is no John D Chapple in the death index for England and Wales.  So either he died abroad or they were divorced.  There is no Chapple divorce to be found in the Nataional Archive’s J77 catalogue of divorce hearings.   Nor is there a Chapple in the British overseas death index for 1924 to 1930.  Nor is there a Chapple in the Scottish death index for 1924 to 1930.

No births can be found with the surname of Chapple and mother’s maiden name of Pilcher.

Two births are on the index for Stevensons with mother’s name of Pilcher between 1924 and 1945:

Surname First name(s) Mother District Vol Page
Births Mar 1932   (>99%)
Stevenson Nicholas D J Pilcher Pancras 1b 189   
Births Sep 1933   (>99%)
STEVENSON Nicholas M Pilcher Hampstead 1a 721

Why were they both Nicholas?  Did the first one die?  There is no entry for a child Nicholas Stevenson death between 1931 and 1940 on the English and Welsh index.
