Website that maps surnames worldwide
 

A website which maps global surnames has been launched to help people find the origins of their name and how far it may have spread.

The site covers a billion people in 26 countries, showing the origins of names and where families have scattered.

Loads of Jarretts down under it would appear.
The telephone directory in Jamaica also had many. Maybe I have roots from there?:rasta

Server Error in '/worldnames' Application.
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>


Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

" Please visit the website after 30 min...It is being updated "

error central... but a cool concept nonetheless

Looks like country is the smallest area that is counted. Pity it's not more refined, like down to state level.

So what? Whats the relevance of a "Jarrett" anyway? I was stabbed in Jamaica by someone with the surname Jarrett. Next time i meet a Jarrett im gonna fucking punch their lights out.
