Remember that this list is not complete yet. Some are certainly Romany Gypsy, while others are Irish Tinkers / Travelers as well as some Scottish Travelers. Because no one kept track of which were the Romany lineages, and which were the Irish and Scottish Travelers, who married in to the Romany lineages, today no one really remembers which are the true Roma lineages today. But genetic genealogy is helping to unravel that mystery. The Romany having come from India and Pakistan and migrated to Europe, are clearly geneticly different then their European counter parts.
As you see, most are very common surnames, and very difficult to be certain of your Romany or Traveler connection with out a lot of paper trail research and the use of genetic genealogy.
