Since 1972 Hall of Names has been researching the origins and history of families surnames. In 1986 we released The Worlds First computerized on-site retrieval system that was able to database over 25,000 surname histories which could then be printed on parchment using a dot matrix printer.  

Today our retrieval systems have over 1,000,000 surname histories from all over the world. Through the internet we receive thousands of research request every week and continue to add new surname histories to our databases. These histories are prepared on Color Laser Printers and include not only the history of the family name but a full color print of the Ancient Coat of Arms.
