I am trying to research ancestors with my maiden name of "Maiden". Anyone searching for that name will certainly commiserate with me over having to pore through multitudes of entries for "maiden name unknown" and others of its kind. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to enter the surname "Maiden" into a search field which will eliminate all those OTHER entries?
And on a similar topic: having started my family tree on another site, I developed the habit of entering women with their birth surname, not their married name. This doesn't seem to be a universal practice on this site. Although Geni does have a way to do this, its terminology differs. I'm new to Geni Pro; are there guidelines somewhere that explain how to properly enter people (especially females)? While it may seem intuitive, I must confess that it's not what I've been accustomed to.
