Mine would have to be TRAMPLEASURE.
Variations include Tramplara, Templaria etc.  It only appears in my tree in the late 17th/early 18th century around Redruth in Cornwall.
Hi PrueM,

I realize your post in very old, but your home page says not to PM you, so here's my comment :-)

My last name is Trampleasure. I would love to connect with you about the family name (also have the variations you mention). I have my tree on Ancestry.com.

Have you seen the 19th century novel with the Tramplara -> Trampleasure name change in it?

If you want to reach me, my email address is my first name (Lee) @ my last name dot net.

Her home page says she was last on the site in 2013, so on that basis I would say you are unlikely to hear from her.
James Stott c1775-1850. James was born in Yorkshire but where? He was a stonemason and married Elizabeth Archer (nee Nicholson) in 1794 at Ripon. They lived thereafter in Masham. If anyone has any suggestions or leads as to his birthplace I would be interested to know. I have searched for it for years without success. Thank you.
