hehehehe, I'll keep it in mind. Not my documentation in either case.

>Reaney, P.H. and R.M.Wilson, _A Dictionary of English Surnames_ p. 238 >has Hope as the header spelling and dates Robert de Hope 1255 and >Robert del Hope 1302.  "From Hope (Derby, Salop, NRYorks, etc.) or from >residence in or near raised land in a fen, or a small enclosed valley (OE >hop)."

Kewl, I'll pass it on

>Was the forename a typo?  I can find Alianor, Alianora, Alienor, Alienora, 
>Eleanor, Eleanora, Elianora, Elianor, Elinor, Elyenora, and Elena, but not
>Elanor.

No telling, but I have my doubts that the exact spelling will be an issue. Will any or all of these work with the locative 'Hope'?
