- How many surnames are in my family tree database:
- Keough/Lidman database = 1,133 surnames
- Newfoundland families database = 302 surnames
- I use Legacy Family Tree version 7.5 and this is how I performed the task:
- Open family file
- Click on Reports - All Reports
- Click on Surname Summary
- Click on Preview Report - Screen/Printer
- Surnames are listed in alphabetical order so I paged through to find the top five surname entries - the report gives you the name, the quantity and the date range
- The top five surnames in my family tree databases are:
- Keough/Lidman database:
- Keough = 347
- Murphy = 173
- Shaughnessy = 116
- Tracey = 63
- Kavanaugh = 62
- Newfoundland Families database:
- Keough = 414
- Walsh = 228
- Sullivan = 200
- Philpott = 148
- Aylward = 147

SNGF - Surnames
