Hi! On June 23, 1998, I created a monster! A genealogy monster, that is... That is the day that I started Connect With Surnames. This is a place to list people and websites doing genealogy according to the surnames that they are researching. I have been SWAMPED with submissions. I am about 15 submissions behind right now, and that's doing good. I just did an official count of the number of surnames. 1336 is the grand total. So, you think that your surname is too unique to find someone else researching it? Think again! Wigley, Schneider, Wyckoff, Craddock, Schimanowsky, Vermeule, Weir, Huebner, and Latzig are among the most unusual listed there. The top most unusual listed at Connect With Surnames in my opinion is Szczygiel. So, why don't you drop by and find a connection or leave your surnames (limit 15) at: http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Flats/4239 And if you are interested, but only have email and do not have access to webpages, send me your name, email address, and up to 15 surnames to be listed there. I will list only your email address (or website) under the submitted surnames. I do not list dates, places, nor individual queries. There are different approaches to doing this type of webpage, and I have links to 2 other wonderful surname sites with slightly different approaches on my pages. Thanks, Amy Brown
