Surnames: Including Collateral Branches

After posting the recent Surname Wordle, I found this Word Frequency Counter, which allowed me to input the same text I entered into Wordle.net's script, and get an ordered list of surnames with the number of appearances. I then reorganized the information to my liking. What follows is every surname in my database with at least five individuals, grouped in order of frequency, with spelling variations grouped together. This is a good complement to my list of surnames of direct ancestors.
