Rotherforth - the name

For those of you who have wondered how rare these Rotherforths really are, check out this page that is part of a surname analysis of the British census. Apparently there were 208 (of voting age) in the UK in 1998.

But it looks like it's growing. It tripled over the centure, if you can keep that up we'll all be Rotherforths in a little over a millenium.

Well I'd never thought of that as a path to world domination but I suppose it would be less violent than a lot of methods.
