Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In the search for ancestors, names are the starting point. Here is a solid working guide for family tree historians to surnames - their history, identification, and variations. Written with his usual clarity and enthusiasm by professional genealogist John Titford. Are there Tadpoles or Hedgehogs in your family tree? Were your ancestors Silly, Daft, Vague or Horrible? Did they Fidget, Stammer or Tremble? Did they suffer from a Headache or a Gumboil? In the search for ancestors, names are the starting point. Without names, there would be no family history, and an understanding of names, and surnames in particular, will always be a crucial aid to knowledge and research. Searching for Surnames attempts to clear away some of the fog from the subject and provides a working guide to surname identification. It encourages readers to enjoy the diversity of surnames, be they common or rare, easy to interpret or shrouded in mystery. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781853067655
