Searching the Notts FHS Baptism CD for HONEY + any other characters gives only 3 entries for HONEY.

I'd suggest also trying the UCL surname profiler but cannot now find it.

I agree, if you look at familysearch.org and type in Honeymold surname then Honeyman and variants e.g. Honyman comes up in Nottinghamshire

Shirl
North,Noble,Harrison,Seller - North Riding Yorks parishes
Brown,Brooks,Watson - Belper/Duffield Derbys
Hole - Ashover Derbys
Webb, Flavell, Mason - Staffs (mainly Sedgley)
Bevan,Beamond - Chirbury Shropshire
Longridge - Northumberland/Durham
Freeman - Hampshire, Oxfordshire,Sussex
Smith - Derbyshire and Yorkshire
Whitehead - Yorkshire
Morris - St Pancras Yorkshire etc

Hi, also Honeymoon is a surname in Nottinghamshire.


My first marriage went moldy just after the Honeymoon.   ;D
