Surname Distribution Analysis and Mapping

A useful tool for those engaged in a One-name Study or more general genealogical research. While this analysis can be done non-graphically, a graphical analysis has much more visual impact, and spatial relationships are more readily discerned. This site permits genealogists to upload data extracted from the LDS Census CDs or other sources and to generate distribution density maps for the UK or the USA.

Surname Origins

Surname origins maps historic surname distributions for England and Wales, Scotland, Ireland and The United States. Unlike most surname mapping sites it uses sub county/state units to create highly detailed distributions. Users submit their surname data which are then mapped for a modest fee.
