Have a laugh...

Checked on my brother Ptolemy and there are 1,564 with it as a first name but 1 of fewer Ptolemy Fords so possibly unique just not reliable data then?

Could well be Frank although they tend to have an e after as Forde. We have gone back to mid 18th century and the family is firmly based in Essex as Millwrights (making mill stones) around the Danbury area.... Not found any connection with Ireland but I still enjoy a pint or few on St.Paddy's day!

Not sure the info is correct, as apparently there is 1 person with my name in the US of A.

I mean, why would a parent call their child toomanyhorses anyway?
