Somerset & Dorset Surnames and Queries Index

You can search for other researchers with the same surname interests and contact them by email or you can contact the webmaster and get him to upload your surname interests to the website. However, if you choose this option, I would suggest you create a secondary email address or use a disposable email address before you upload your info to a website. Any spam the email address attracts on the website will then not go to your primary email address.
