I have lifted this from another forum...hope I'm not repeating something you already know about.
| Quote: | For anyone interested in family history, the following web site might be worth a visit.
http://www.publicprofiler.org/worldnames/
(If you're lucky), it will show the distribution of your surname in many countries of the world, from its huge database. This site was "released" a few weeks ago, but was so inundated with requests that it had to limit connections for a while. |

De rien Mr Bro
Have looked and been surprised to discover that Gower is predominantly in New Zealand, then Australia and the US before the UK  _________________ Please note:

Won't open for me - must be too busy. Can get to the home page but can't get any further. Will try during the dya sometime when it may be less busy _________________ “You can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses.”

One of the names in my tree, Dockwray, must be one of the rarest in the world!! Less than 2 families per million, and really only in the UK!! Yet I have loads of them in my tree ... odd, isn't it?!!
