Finally, a guide to the evolution of Dutch surnames. How did old world Dutch names like Makentews and Oculi suddenly become Macintosh and Oakley? Probably a recording error by an immigration clerk, census-taker, clergyman or other scribe. Such an error can thwart even an experienced researcher's best efforts to document his or her ancestry. Names, Names, and More Names can open the flood gates by making the connections between contemporary surnames and their Dutch origins. This book is the result of more than thirty years of research of the Dutch patronymic naming system. In it, Arthur C.M.
