Spouse name not in parenthesis? https://www.familysearch.org/indexing/batch/770f6611-270a-4c3f-b397-
I really don't know how to present a question. Hope this is right. Most spouse names are noted in parenthesis. In these entries I see possible spouse names at the end. Is this the spouse?
Thank you,
Vickie

I can't access the batch, but if it's something like
Edwards, Wm., Anna
Than you will index Anna in the spouse's info.
For future reference, please post the batch code, which is at the top of the indexing screen and looks like [MQ5Y-W7Y].0

Example: Haight, Henry H, lab, h 11Fayette, Alice M - I'm assuming Alice is spouse. Usually spouse is shown before address and occupation. These names are at the end. Sometimes difficult to distinguish between spouse name and street name. Thanks for your help. I've never posted before. I'll do better next time. :)

Yes, I came across this as well. You can tell if it is the spouse and not part of the street name if at the end, there is a comma before the name. I believe it is Binghamton that has an area that is called Stella. So, if there is no comma before "Stella" it is the street or area name.
