Dialect words and field names (both very interesting) - the early ones are a good indicator of settlers in areas. It is important not to lose them !
As has been said the East coast and Yorkshire are areas of Viking settlement - where a lot of my roots are -
I know my father had Viking ancestry as he developed the problem with the palm of his hand referred to in medical circles as "the Viking gene" - which is more common in those areas.
It would be interesting to have the DNA tests to see where the roots are...
