Surname - Iles - Distribution

 Randy Seaver has given this challenge for our Saturday night Genealogy Fun. - Go to the public profiler site and see on the map the distribution of your surname.

I have done this search for the Iles surname. So first is the World Wide Map. - The United Kingdom and Australia have the highest concentration of the surname with Australia edging out the United Kingdom by a small fraction. They were followed by New Zealand, then Serbia and then Canada. . 

This map shows the distribution in the United Kingdom. The southwest now has the greatest concentration over the West Midlands area where our family came from before coming to Canada. The southwest area includes Gloucestershire where I have found the beginnings of the Iles family in my research. .

 

 In Canada, Ontario has the highest concentration with the Prairie provinces and Quebec having about the same.
