Yes, the reason that Noel's mother's maiden name is shown as Janes or Cunningham-Ryan on the birth index would be that Doris was calling herself Janes but was not married to Robert Janes, so her name will be shown on the birth certificate as Doris Janes otherwise Cunningham-Ryan, whereas if she was married to Robert it would say Doris Janes formerly Cunningham-Ryan and her maiden name on the index would just be Cunningham-Ryan.
