Goals
This is a One Name Study to collect together in one place everything about the Sailing surname and close variants of that name. The study will begin in England, documenting each instance of this name and attempting to link them together. People listed with this surname that turn out to be mis-transcriptions of other surnames will also be noted. When I am done with England, I will move out to other parts of the world.
