    Tracing surnames from 1881 to 1998

    For anybody wanting to trace a surname, and how it has spread across Alba, Sassen and A' Chuimrigh (Scotland, England and Wales), here's a good link:

    http://www.nationaltrustnames.org.uk/Surnames.aspx

    First you choose which year to look at 1881 or 1998, and then type in a surname.

    Happy hunting!
