I just found out my neighbor village dropped a letter in it's name in the last 150 years, nice.

My family dropped a letter from its name in the same time - apparently because some Church of Scotland minister thought he knew how to spell the family name better than my ancestors did. My elder brother still has the family bible with the spelling change in place.
