Normandy was where our surname 'Crane' came from. For some reason I have
an admiration from Sweden and the Norseman who settled in Northern France
are the only link that I can find.

RD: Personally, I consider myself British rather than than English. OK I
was born in the county of Surrey with the surname Devereux (and the trouble
I have getting people to spell that correctly!).The bit of France that is now called Normandy was named after the Norsemen
who conquered it. The norsemen adopted the French language and the French
custom of fighting fromm horseback.Sorry, too tired to argue more.
