Genealogy: Maiden Names and Married Names
A list of maiden names alongside the surname of the family they married into that I have encountered locally.
..... don't forget to follow my Genealogy page on Pinterest
One of the most difficult lines of enquiry into our genealogy is trying to find our maternal lines, a lot of the time the only clue we have is a woman's first name and it's trying to find those elusive maiden names that causes us such headaches. With that in mind I have decided to keep a list of maiden names and their married names as and when I find them and display them in this hub, I'm not sure how much help it will prove to be but hopefully it will prove of use in the future as the list grows.
The other way of informing people of the Mother's surname is to use it as a middle name for a child - I have therefore also compiled a list along these lines which can be found here:

Middle names possibly being used to denote mother's maiden name.
