The E-Sylum: Volume 9, Number 37, September 10, 2006, Article 14 USEFUL U.K. WEB RESOURCES Katie Jaeger writes: "Here are some interesting web resources from the U.K.: First, a website that gives geographical surname distribution maps. You key a surname into the search engine, and choose either 1881 or 1998, and get a map of England separated into counties, where concentrations of that surname appear in that year: Full Story Second is the book search on the British Google... google.co.uk. It operates just like the U.S. Google book search: From the home page, click "more" then choose "book search." When the new search bar pops up, key in your search term - I keyed in "medal" - and then under the search bar, I had a choice of "all books" or "full view books" (meaning full text books). I chose "full view books" and a wonderful array of titles popped up, all 100% searchable. Not only British books are included: I found the catalog of the ANS international medal exhibition of 1910, for example."
