Those in England to be more specific.

You're going to think I'm nuts, but...How common is the last name "Arthur" in England and does anyone have an idea where it might have been most prevalent?

I've either read once or had been told..Wales, but wasn't sure if that is correct.

Sorry I know this is not a geneology site, but I thought with the number of UK members...what the heck!

Take care
Steve

Happy VE Day

It could be your lucky day Steven - my wife's hobby is genealogy!

Take a look at this link for the origin of the name, and if you want anything specific looked up in the UK, drop me an email.
