Local Etymology, Or Names of Places in the British Isles, and in Other Parts of the World by W. A. Williamson Pdf

Excerpt from Local Etymology, or Names of Places in the British Isles, and in Other Parts of the World: Explained Illustrated With Notices of Surnames and Obsolete Words The prevailing taste for matters of antiquity in the present day is, perhaps, the principal reason for the author's taking up this subject. The fragmental evidence of past times which the names of places afford, is the first step in the inquiry; and since, in all probability, as much is now known of the ancient languages of Europe as ever will be known, the subject can never be in a better state for investition. But etymological speculation has ever been accounted vague and unsatisfactory, and so in some degree it is; nevertheless there are certain general principles belonging to it, which are as capable of being conducted to rational conclusions as those of any other subject.
