Preston~ Thanks for sharing this info. In my last family newsletter I included a short article on surname popularity using the www.placesnamed.com site. Unfortunately, the site doesn't seem to exist any more, so your links will be helpful for future use. The map showing surname distribution was kind of fun, too. Thanks again!
