Agreed but it can be difficult when you don't know the maiden name. I
started by leaving it blank and then ended up with a collection of
forenames at the front of my index. So I now go with the married surname
and a title suffix of spouse. These have the advantage of showing in the
index in a more appropriate place and also it is easy to produce a list
by searching for suffix "spouse"
