Surname Directory

All 2619 surnames have been collected, any duplicates removed and the lists alphabetised, from the Surname Lists in the Reference Section of the Forum.

Any offers of databases, resources, wills etc. or generally interesting items have been collected up and will be added somewhere else (this is work in progress)

Those threads will now be deleted.

If you want to add your surname interests to the site, there are two ways to do it:

The best way is to add your own tree to the GEDCOM which gives you the facility to search by name, place and/or year of birth. Otherwise you can add them to the relevant pages in this Surname Directory.

This Surname Directory is really intended for those names which would not appear in the GEDCOM because the “owners” have been born since 1900 and have no date of death, or for those members who do not have a computerised version of their tree and would still like to enter their main names.

You are welcome to enter your names into the Wiki yourself, but you need to be prepared to code them yourself. A “How to Guide” will appear here in due course ..

If you don’t want to enter the names yourself, please enter them on [put link in here].

N.B. The Surname Directory in the Wiki is only for surnames, not for individuals or for lookup requests – if you are looking for a specific individual you can ask for help on the Research Advice

Please enter your names using the following format:

SURNAME (in capital letters) Location (in Title Case) User name

SMITH Ireland, Scotland, London & Australia Mickey the Mouse

JONES Middlesex and Kent Donald ~ Duck

BARNABY Midsomer Common and Kent *Jim the Detective*

Don't add extra punctuation between the name and location!!
