Hi,  

While messing with the "unknowns" today, I've sourced Mary Unknown Garrison's LNAB, based on the marriage records for two of her children; it's "Molyneaux". How do I modify her Wiki profile?

Adopt the profile, then you can change it.  You an orphan it again afterwards.

Be sure you have thorough sources to back up the change.

You need to be on a profile's trusted list to change its birth surname/LNAB: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Correcting_a_Last_Name_at_Birth .

When there is no Profile Manager, the only way to get on the Trusted List is to adopt the profile.
