Two contributions were accidently left off my previous summary of
responses on this subject.
Badri Badrinath provided a list of references on name searching and also
three web sites of interest:
www.listservicedirect.com/ethnic_religious.html
www.cdc.gov/nchs/about/grants/method/method.htm
www.uni-bielefeld.de/gesundhw/ag3/PDF/name-based.pdf
Tricia McKinney ([log in to unmask]) used Nam Pehchan and Sangra to
study diabetes, renal disease and childhood cancer in children in West
Yorkshire and can provide a list of references on request.
