=== Pronunciation of Virginia Surnames  ===


Another interesting aspect of Virginia surnames is - how were they pronounced? In 1895, Lyon G. Tyler recorded the spellings and pronunciations of some rather unusual surnames he was familiar with:<ref>Lyon G. Tyler, "Virginia Names Spelt One Way and Called Another," ''The William and Mary Quarterly,'' Vol. 3, No. 4 (Apr. 1895):271-273. Digital version at [http://www.jstor.org/stable/1915297] - free.</ref>
