There are definitely a lot of Chubb's out there.  The pook name seems to be more rare.  Does your next door neighbors wife know anything about her family history?

Dear Paul & Angela,

Thank you both for all the information.  We now have enough information to keep us busy for a good long while.

Pook is rather rare, but not as rare as I had expected. The ONS site Surnames of England and Wales lists 1396 instances in 2002.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to know that they were all from Dorset?
