| "Family Names of the Island of Newfoundland is nothing less than a catalogue of Newfoundlanders as a distinct and unique tribe...It should sell like hot cakes and sit, side by side, with the family Bible."

| "Perusing Seary's comments on the surnames of friends can be as gratifying as backyard gossip, and infinitely less dangerous ... A book that every school in Newfoundland should possess and display."

| Family Names of the Island of Newfoundland is an engaging and comprehensive reference work that offers Newfoundlanders a fascinating look at their roots. Using provincial voting lists, family records, government documents, and newspaper reports dating back to the seventeenth century the book traces the origins of almost three thousand family names, revealing an ethnically diverse people who have forged a rich and distinct culture. | ||||
