It's impossible to know until they tell us. There are many scenarios wherein Cinder could have discovered the existence of Maidens.

Perhaps a relative of hers (mother, sister) was a Maiden, and for some reason, that relative didn't think of Cinder when she died.

Perhaps Cinder had a step-mother who was a Maiden, and her step-mother didn't like her very much or something.

Maybe Cinder found out in a way that had nothing to do with her family.
