Because the mother's maiden name is not added to the birth index until 1911, you would have to buy the birth certificate to be certain of her mother's maiden name:-

Name: Isabella Lily F Barker
Year of Registration: 1906
Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep
District: Bath
County: Avon, Somerset
Volume: 5c
Page: 490
