Why does the woman change her surname when she marries a male?
Why does a child of this union take on the married surname?
Think about this...
A child grows in a womans womb, therefore he/she is 100% a product of that woman's lineage.
The male/spouse may in fact not be the other half of this child.
Shouldn't the woman carry the surname of "her" line and pass it on to a child?
In fact, I believe that is the way it should be!
You can have the best paper trail confirming your lines, step into DNA and a person's world can unravel.
I have had an unenviable situation where I tested a male cousin to confirm our Lucas line. His DNA results came back and it turns out he is a name "only" child of this line.

Last year I also had a complete change of one family line, the mother had a child to her former brother-in-law, DNA brought this one to the surface, imagine telling the person his father isn't his father. It was hard! Although before his passing he did get to know his half-sister a little. Precious time was had.
