Just another follow up on the responses to my isonymy poster presentation: one comment that came up a few times was from both students and professors was that they would love to use isonymy in their own work, but since they were working with a single population it was impractical. In those cases, I recommend two articles by Lasker and Mascie-Taylor dealing that use isonymy at very small scales, including between and within households.
Lasker, GW and Mascie-Taylor CGN, 2001, The genetic structure of English villages: surname diversity changes between 1976 and 1997. Annals of Human Biology, 28 (5): 546-553.
Lasker, GW, 1997, Census versus sample data in isonymy studies: relationship at short distances. Human Biology, 69 (5): 733-738.
