Surname Studies[edit | edit source]

The Guild of One-Name Studies, founded in 1979, is the world's leading organisation for one-name studies. Guild members are committed to studying their surname on a global basis and are required to answer all enquiries relating to their surname.

The Surname Society was founded in 2014 as a not-for-profit entity by a worldwide group of experienced genealogists. Focussing on single surname studies, the Society meets the needs of researchers in the world of family history and genealogy as it evolves in the 21st century.

The vision of The Surname Society is to connect like-minded people by providing up-to-date facilities which enable members to share knowledge, data and good practice with others. The society is entirely online and allows members to register worldwide and limited studies. Collaboration is both facilitated and encouraged as it is the core ethos of The Surname Society.
