Mother's maiden name tip for Staffordshire BMD

[KiteRunner]

Don't know if everybody else already knew about this, but on Staffordshire BMD, the list of results for a birth search doesn't display mother's maiden name. But - if you click on the reference number shown at the end of each entry, it sometimes does show you the mother's maiden name on the screen that comes up. Watch out, though, because it looks as though this adds the entry to your "shopping basket"!

That's useful - it didn't work with the earlier ones I tried (1850s) but it did with a later one (1890s).
