    Shit! My surname, and first name got 8 hits!

    4 Archers, 4 Man-at-arms with Henry IV; Henry V and Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester in the 1400s!

    I knew family military service went back, but I only knew of it going back to the 1800s.

    Nothing under my name, though it was changed when came to Canada, I checked the old name as well and no hits, going on to my Mothers side now.

    I have a French surname but I tried it anyway.
    No hits, but my first name had 3.

    Still I found nothing. Mom's side is Scots (Morton) no hits. Dad's sids is Irish (Hoban, it was O'oban prior to Canada), nothing there either.
    Checking the english cousins out now I should see hits there.

    I'm a dough-head, searching last names under the first name search inquiry.
    52 hits on my Mothers side, still non on Dads.
