I was confused ( ErikaH ) because on the 1939 register original image there is a date and ref. no. 31/12/51 ALA.NR230 .
Given that she didn't remarry and become Edna Willing until 1977 why is the date of surname change given as 1951?

Paul

Maybe they weren’t free to marry till 1977 but she lived with him and took his name in 1951

" . . . . . and took his name in 1951"

Or earlier.
The date on the register is the date of amendment, not the date of change of name.

Henry (Harry) R and Edna in 1953:

Harry R Willing

I don't see them together earlier than that, but presumably they weren't in London before that.

There are several ER entries for them in later years.
