This is the companion category for the Atkinson Name Study and includes other spelling variations. To add this category to a profile, you can add the One Name Study template (which will add the category automatically).
{{One Name Study|name=Atkinson}}
- results in:
This is the top-level category page of the Atkinson Name Study for ancestors of the Atkinson surname and its variants. Note: It is preferred that all profiles contained in the project be designated to a specific location(s) for the benefit of correctly identifying family lines. See Atkinson Name Distribution and Origin
This Name Study is broken down by Regions, and then by Country. There are four location levels currently in use:
- Region level
- Country level: Many countries have already been added, other countries will be added as the need arises
- State or County level: Depending upon the country, further breakdown into states, regions or counties have been added on an "as needed" basis. These will be extended as the need arises
- City or Town level: Only some countries/states have been extended into this level, but will be expanded as more profiles are added
If possible, please sub-categorize profiles by their relevant location(s), (by adding the template below the == Biography == heading) for example:
This template will automatically add BOTH the category and the sticker. Note that additional locations can be included for a profile (without duplicating the sticker) by adding these location(s) without the template (this time above the == Biography == heading)), for example:
