Surname Suggestion List

Post by CatrionaL » Sun Oct 21, 2007 7:27 pm

Have any of you had a look at the Surname Suggestion List, offered as a free download at Legacy?

If your lost relative eludes you and you can't think what name to search under next, , you will find lots of ideas. There are three lists produced for each search: Excellent, Close or Longshot.

Looks as though it could be really helpful in some situations. Although having found my Glover family indexed as Glouer and Glorer, neither of which appears in the suggestions list, some personal ingenuity is still needed!
