Dear Stacey,

Try writing the name of Chenoweth on a piece of paper. Don't print, just write it out without thinking about it. Over the years I have seen letters and postcards to my Chenoweth family and many of them could be mistaken for different spellings. That's just the tip of the iceberg on misspelling. My Mother went to pick up a new copy of her birth certificate, her name is spelled REITA, the health department had dropped the I and the clerk's reasoning was when entering this information they probably though the hospital had misspelled it and so they "fixed" it.
By the way, where is your family from? My Chenoweth's are primarily from Illinois.
