Wow I could sit on that search engine all day thanks for sharing it with us.

Oakman count 583, Rank 10,066
Allwright count 780 Rank 8,084
Carrington count  6796 Rank 1,163

Funny thing is, Oakman over the years has also been spelt, Oakeman and Okeman and there is no records at all for that spelling... so there were none or less than 5 people...
