Maiden name of person was entered wrong by a contributor so how can I change the profile name?

Question

 Ellen (Boylan) Rice (abt.1785-1860). (Ellen's maiden name is Cleary from marriage records)

Comments

Something to research before changing LNAB, is whether she was married before. Often the name on license is their current last name. Does the license have the question about previous marriages?

When profiles are created, they normally have the Biography and Sources headers, but this one does not.  I don't know how that happened, so I have added them.  I also added the. Find a Grave citation that I found since the location was given

If Boylan was another name, that should be put into the Other Last Name field.

Answer 1

IN EDIT MODE, and here is an example, but be aware it will not be printed in RED like I have it here to get your attention ... it will be green-ish 

You click on that [edit] and follow instructions   

no middle name
Last Name at Birth:	Howell  [edit]
Current Last Name:	uncertain certain

I'm trying to change the LNAB on this profile https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Thornton-2400&action=edit

And in edit mode no 'edit' shows up when I click on the green ?. I just takes me to a help page which doesn't show me how to edit the name, unless I've overlooked something.

Reliable sources prove that her LANB is Jones, not Thornton, and there are other problems with the profile as a result.

Donna, you can only change the LNAB if you are PM or on the Trusted List.

You will need to request TL access, or request the PM make the change.  (PM was active to the end of May.)
