Birth indices don’t show mother’s maiden name before 3Q 1911.

However, you can register on https://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/
They have updated the records so that the results do give it.
Very handy for working out who the man married & for finding potential children who were born & died between census.

English & Welsh baptism rarely give the mmn unless she was a single woman.
