maxismydog Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 researching surname for geneology What are you looking for? I don't think you're going to get far asking people on here. You're hardly going to get a complete or official picture. If you are aiming to study your family history you should maybe head for Sheffield Archives on Shoreham Street and check out the census returns. You may even find that your family is not entirely from Sheffield? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
