Surname Profiler - a helpful guide to surname frequency

Legg inn av Douglas Richardson » 13 apr 2006 08:11:23

Dear Newsgroup ~

Those interested in surname frequency will want to visit the Surname
Profiler Project at the following weblink:

http://www.spatial-literacy.org/UCLnames/default.aspx

This website is based on a recent research project based at University
College London (UCL) which investigated the distribution of surnames in
Great Britain, both current and historic, in order to understand
patterns of regional economic development, population movement and
cultural identity. This website allows users to search the databases
that they have created, and to trace the geography and history of their
family names.

I searched the website for my own surname, Richardson, and it showed
that the heaviest concentrations of this name derive from the north of
England. All in all, this website is a helpful tool for genealogists.


Best always, Douglas Richardson, Salt Lake City, Utah

Well, if you're going by standard medieval reckoning (Julian calendar,
Dionysian Easter reckoning), that'll be the following Sunday, what we
call April 23 (but to my Russian Orthodox friend, this will be April 10).

Aye, here in Greece we will have two Easters. British Cadbury's Easter
Eggs this weekend and Greek Easter Eggs and processions in Rhodes next
weekend!

Well, some of celebtaed Pesach already. I still like Cadbury eggs, though. Are they still around. I've seen none this year - & I work in a grocery!
