The names of John de Lindsay (d. 1335), Ingram Lindsay (15th century) David Lyndsay (c. 1490âc. 1555) and Robert Lindsay of Pitscottie (1532â1580) are early examples of the name being used as surname by members of lower nobility in Scotland.n the late 19th century, the surname gave rise to the given name Lindsay (and variants Lindsey, Lyndsy, etc.) in the United States, at first as a male given name, and since the mid-20th century increasingly as a female given name.
In Wyoming, the Midget Faded Rattlesnake is only found in desert habitats in the southwestern corner of the state. We can safely conclude that the species the reader observed was the Prairie Rattlesnake.
So far, the text that has accompanied this picture has claimed the rattlesnake was killed in either Poteau Mountain, Arkansas or Olla, Louisiana. Although the location may change, the size of the snake is apparently being consistently reported as 11 feet 4 inches and 59 pounds (with 28 rattles). Let's start with what we know. The color and patterning of the snake give it away as a Timber Rattlesnake, Crotalus horridus.
