Merritt provides his marital status as widower, which he is not. At best he's divorced, although I've seen no evidence that he ever got a formal divorce. Laura's mother's name (which is supposed to have her mother's maiden name) is provided as "Lydia Maby", although "Mabee" is the name of Lydia's step-father, not her birth name (Stuart).
