John, Great! I'll be on vacation for the last half of August, but after I get back I can put it together. It'll be an ongoing effort, and I would love to have your suggestions as well as others. You can send them to me anytime, but I won't get around to working on them until September. Thanks, Allene On 7/20/2011 4:06 PM, Lochlan@aol.com wrote: > > In a message dated 7/20/2011 11:04:39 A.M.

Allene, Perhaps most people could be well aware that their family's name could have been spelled differently in the past, perhaps in another language, and may have morphed again and again, but possibly not everybody could be aware of that.

Doug, Your absolutely right. I was surprised to see how many different ways my surname "Lane" was spelled in early Ulster records like the 1609 Pardon Lists and 1665 Hearth Money rolls. I found it listed as Lane, O'Lane O'Luen, Loan, Leine, Leyne, Loane, Lahin, Leen, Lean. The spelling was all over the place, which makes research that much more of a challenge. After my Lane's arrived in Virginia from Ulster in the 1750's I found it spelled as Laine, Lain, and Lane. I'm still trying to pinpoint where my M-222 Lane's came from in Ulster..The surname Lane does not appear to be that common in Northern Ireland today, but the surname Loane is, particularly in County Tyrone.

Chris, Oh, my goodness! My family name has been spelled in about every way it could possibly be spelled, and then some! But a new searcher might not be aware of how a name could become a completely different name. For instance, O'Muirgheasain became Morrison and also became Bryson. Most people could be aware of such a thing, but some newcomers might not, and so an introductory "clue" as to there being such a possibility could be most helpful to them. Membership in the M222 Club is not optional, and so a hearty welcome to new members could be a good way to get them interested in their own M222 history.
