Does anyone know a site where I can discover my great grandmother's maiden surname? None of the family know. I have her Christian name, her year and location of birth but no geneaology website I use will accept anything less than a surname. Even her marriage details to my great grandfather online will not throw up any info.

Why don't you order the birth certificate of one of her children - this will be one of your grandparents as it will be recorded on this. If your grandparent was born after a certain year (sorry - can't remember which one) then in the births register it will have their mothers maiden name in the register. That's how I knew that the birth of a baby in 1916 was related to me as I could see the mothers maiden name in the register, so I knew I was ordering the correct certificate. If you order the birth certificate from the registry office where the birth was registered then it will cost you �7.
If you have any other questions on your family history you may be better posting them in the genealogy section under the history heading.
Good luck.
Her marriage details to your great grandfather should show her name. When did they marry, where and what are their names?
