How do I find out someone's maiden name?

Answer 1

this answer applies if you are in the uk. go to www.ancestry.co.uk they have free access to all births, deaths and marraiges from 1837 onward. (titled BDM). . do a search for the persons husband, when you find him it will give you the option to look at others on the same page and you should be able to work it out from that.

Answer 2

I'm assuming that these names wouldn't be hyphenated because they'd be way too long. I don't really like Jeramie for a girl, possibly because I know way too many male Jeramys. I think Roxiie Shaye flows better than Shaye Roxiie. It's traditional to give the firstborn, or firstborn male, the mother's maiden name as a middle name. I would love to do that because it signifies the blending of both sides of the family. Fortunately my maiden name is a unisex name.

Answer 3

Maiden names will be on birth certificate and marriage certificates, the easiest will be the marriage certificate if you know the approx date of marriage. You can pay to search online at places like genesreunited.co.uk and search under name and marriage date - look under the husbands name and next to it will be the maiden name of woman he married. You can also search through the records held at the Family Records Centre in london
