I really think this surname list would be more useful if some subscribers added place names and dates, even if approximate, to their postings. The BOYLE name is common enough but, when you add a given name like William or Catherine and fail to give any indication of a place or time, well - the phrase "a needle in a haystack" springs to mind.
