I certainly hope the inference is not that the name Queen is somehow only non-Catholic. The name is also an Irish one and I can personally attest to the fact that some people named Queen are Catholic. Sometimes I get the impression from this list that people also think the name is strictly a Southern phenomenon. My ancestry is from Massachusetts, with links to Canada and then unclear lines from there.
