No promised review of the Kushner book yet, but today's mail brought another publication:

Postles, Dave & Joel T. Rosenthal eds. 2006. Studies on the Personal Name in Later Medieval England and Wales. Medieval Institute Publications, Kalamazoo.

And right there starting on p.211 is "Comparing Historic Name Communities in Wales: Some Approaches and Considerations" by Heather Jones. It's mostly an exploration of various types of statistical comparisons that can be made on small-sample name data sets with a lot of time spent exploring how small a sample size will give reasonably valid results for a comparison.

Now *that* is cool. How much does this book run, 'cause I want to get a copy.

I'm not sure off the top of my head -- it's softcover so it's probably in the $15-25 range. The Medieval Institute Publications website doesn't list it yet.
