Melba, adding mothers’ maiden names requires access to the actual birth registrations. FreeBMD only has access to the index, and mothers’ maiden names are not given in the index until the 3rd quarter of 1911.

Hi, this has changed now I think as GRO has made a new index, and included maiden names all the way back to 1837. The catch is you have to search by surname, sex and 2 year period.

The "new index" as you call it, is an internally-created GRO facility and is a pilot scheme, in which case it may or may not continue to be available to the general public.   FreeBMD has transcribed, and continues to transcribe, from the published indices.  Do you really expect unpaid volunteers to re-enter millions of registrations? 

There is a baptism for Joseph, son of Joseph and Margaret - 17 October 1790 at Acton (near Nantwich).  Parents said to be of Hurleston.
