500 years?
That level of accuracy would require to be descended from nobility, surely? Most of which is Norman.
FUCK OFF, YOU FROG!

Haha!
Admittedly it gets a bit tenuous a couple of hundred years back.
Not nobility, no - just a bunch of unimaginative Somerset farmers who didn't go very far (about 5 miles in 500 years, in fact), making tracing somewhat easier.
The frog insult may be correct: my surname derives either from the French or from a spelling mistake.
