There are now several websites which claim to profile surnames and identify localities for frequency.

It gets a bit problematical in that locations of names in the 17th and 18th C may not correspond well to the frequencies in the 21st. But I see that Boone is a common name in Northern Ireland ... and in Norwich (in Norfolk ... the big Eastern 'bulge' of England).

Lincoln is obviously more common. But Norwich is specially mentioned as being where Lincoln is a high frequency surname. And to a lesser extent Londonderry (Northern Ireland).

... warning : This is quite addictive ( I tried 'Trump' and see that the surname is quite common in the Ipswich area , 45 miles from Norwich)

( BTW, of course Northern Ireland is not 'England' but I wont go into the politics of that)
