Containing entries for more than 45,000 English, Scottish, Welsh,
Irish, Cornish, and immigrant surnames, The Oxford Dictionary of
Family Names in Britain and Ireland is the ultimate reference work
on family names of the UK. The Dictionary includes every surname
that currently has more than 100 bearers. Each entry contains lists
of variant spellings of the name, an explanation of its origins
(including the etymology), lists of early bearers showing evidence
for formation and continuity from the date of formation down to the
19th century, geographical distribution, and, where relevant,
genealogical and bibliographical notes, making this a fully
comprehensive work on family names. This authoritative guide also
includes an introductory essay explaining the historical
background, formation, and typology of surnames and a guide to
surnames research and family history research. Additional material
also includes a list of published and unpublished lists of surnames
from the Middle Ages to the present day.
