Kathy the maiden name is always on the certificate, just not included in the index untill 1911.

If you want look ups for Alexander's marriage then don't forget to put Ireland in the title to attract those with Irish knowledge

It looks as if his eldest child born Ireland so the marriage probably took place there so you will need Irish Records
