U.S. Surname Distribution Maps
Generates online maps of the United States
showing the distribution of people with this surname
within the 50 United States. The source of this data is the 1850
Census, 1880 Census,
1920 Census, and 1990s phone books. Note that the Census data is a
sampling
of 1 in 100 names, so the 1990 data is the most accurate |
