Abbreviations used in the Roots Surname List and
soc.genealogy.surnames/GENNAM-L.

These abbreviations are a collection of United States and Canadian postal
codes, Chapman codes, three letter ISO codes for nations, Norwegian
standard county codes, Swiss canton postal abbreviations, plus many
abbreviations we invented for historic German and Austrian states and
other areas.  The list is a joint effort with contributions by John D. von
Bergen, Christian Carey, Jim Eggert, Reinhold Herrmann, Karen Isaacson,
Bill Mills, and Herbert Stoyan.

Immediately below the table sorted by locations is another sorted
by abbreviations.  If you have a location and want to find its
abbreviation, look in the first table.  If you have an abbreviation
and want to find its meaning, look in the second table. For older RSL
entries, if you can't find an abbreviation in the second table, look in
the third table for formerly used abbreviations.

Umlauted vowels are sorted here as vowel + e; Swedish [ and {
are sorted as ae; Swedish and Norwegian \ and | as oe.
