MORGAN and DHUBHTHAIGH - GREAT CELTIC NAMES: These publications may reveal your origins
more from my email:-
The history of the name indicates that Morgans were Princes of Glamorgan, and we have produced several great CD-ROM's giving the early lines of these Princes, plus the succession through Glamorgan, Monmouth and Brecon of several other Morgan groups.
To see the whole picture it is necessary to look at them all,
The most recent work is now being done on the Descendants of Einon ap Collwyn, a compatriot of Jestyn ap Gwrgan, and it is amazing just how many Morgans there are included in this line.
Enquiries are therefore invited about this new publication, available on CD-ROM, part of the astonishing collection which includes among many other publications:
G001 - Lewis of Van
G002 - Descendants of the Princes of Glamorgan
G003 - The Matthew Family of Llandaff
G004 - The Family of Herberts
G018 - Descendants of Maenarch, Lord of Brecon
G033 - The Morgans of Tredegar House
all available from our web-page with payment available by Credit Card. It is a virtual history of Glamorgan genealogy. Libraries and Educational Establishments are particularly welcome to enquire about the true Morgan story.
If you are really serious about finding the truth about Morgans, you cannot be without any of these publications.
WELL I CAN do without it !
Morgans are a son of some Morgan the other, and with all patronymics your research needs to be done with great care - tiny step by tiny step backwards from the present.
We all must acccept the ancestral trail comes to an end when the records run out, and many question can never be answered.

why
Surname --- Count --- Ranking
MORGAN -- 111337 -- 38
experience suggests that multiplying the result for your surname by 0.93 will give a good idea of the living population for your surname, and multiplying by 3.5 will give the population since the start of parish registers in the 16th century.
so a MORGAN one-name study will have about half a million records, which is why the London professional genealogists regards the MORGAN idea as eccentric to say the least.

LAPHAM -- 548 -- = 10573
but there are 13 000 more LAPHAM in USA so I have quietly slowed down on that project.
it would give us all great joy to locate weaver JOHN LAPHAM born 1635 in Devonshire
who came to America prior to 1673 Google Search: JOHN LAPHAM born 1635 in Devonshire
but if I go to Society of Genealogists Homepage
County Sources: Devon
you may see how many parish registers there are to search - not to mention the gaps in the early records.
