Jane Langridge McArthur is on geni as
* birth surname LANGRIDGE
* married surname MATTHEWS
* born 14/11/1818 Longford
* died 12/8/1891 Hobart
* father Robert Matthews, [Convict "Coromandel" 1804] (?-1828)
* mother Hannah Matthews / Denham (1795-1861)
* husband John Scott McArthur, Free Settler 1827

Query
* if her parents are MATTHEWS and EDGE - why is her birth name LANGRIDGE?

Robert MATTHEWS and Hannah EDGE had the following children
* Margaret Catherine
* Jane Langridge
* Sarah Elizabeth
* Hannah
* Elizabeth Eliza
* Charlotte Eleanor

So it looks like Langridge is a middle name not a birth surname.
