Should I include both the maidenname and married name of mother?

In the Barbados records, I'm not sure whether I should include both names or just one of them in the "Mother's surname" space. I checked the project details, and it was not too helpful! What do you think?

    It would be most helpful if you included the batch code with your question so we could see what you are seeing! The batch code is the series of numbers and letters in brackets following the project title. For example: Barbados—Church Records, 1849–1891[M3DJ-YZQ]
