While surfing the net this morning, I came across a great resource page for NAMES information. The home page didn't offer much of a description of this resource, so in my own humble efforts to describe it: It is a list that contains given names,surnames and place names in the United States. It is all cross indexed with clickable links. For given names and surnames it gives their most popular rank. For place names, it gives all kinds of information. It is a great resource in trying to pin down those elusive places. I have become increasingly annoyed at genealogy web pages that title their pages: SMITH COUNTY GENEALOGY and there is my ancestor listed and I have no idea in which STATE, or Country even, this SMITH County is located. Now I can look it up! (It list the current place names, so it might not be too much help if you are looking for a historic place name that is no longer being use) I have cut and pasted the Blount County, TN and Maryville, TN info as an example.
