Why is the mother's maiden name missing from all Irish civil births for the year 1933 ONLY?
Using the record set 'Ireland Civil Registration Indexes, 1845-1958'.
The mother's maiden name is included on the index for births up to and including 1932, and from 1934. But, the index does not appear to show the mother's maiden name on any 1933 records.
What is the reason for this please?
Thank you

The record set Ireland Civil Registration Indexes, 1845-1958 is an index only. It was created from records that contain only the name of the child. The name of the mother is not there to be extracted. The originals are in this format:

Yes it is an index only. Similar to the England/Wales and the Scottish birth register index can include the mother's maiden name.
Here is a random example as you can see there is a surname of the mother's maiden name. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:F17L-ZZF?cid=fs_copy
My question is about the INDEX for the 1930's if anyone happens to know the reason the mother's maiden name doesn't show up from 1933?
I'm aware of the full records available on the the irishgenealogy.ie website and use them frequently. Those birth records under 100 years old are not shared online.
Thanks
