One thing I found interesting on Geneanet.org was the number of responses to a search for my surname: Tanner. I found records for Tanners in France, Sweden, Germany, Wales, Ireland and in the United States. I have the impression that my family always assumed that all the Tanners came from England, but it looks like there could be some significant revisions to that tradition.
