By the way, does that mean that the town of Salisbury, North Carolina 
was founded by criminals? *gasp!*

No No....... Quite the opposite, we're really the criminals  ;-)

Long story short:-

There are three main ways to spell the name, Salisbury, Salasbury and
Salsbury

If you spelt it with an " i " your family were farmers
If you spelt it with an " a " your family were fishermen

Based on these professions you were taxed accordingly, some bright spark
decided to register his name with neither so could not be caught for
tax.......  200 years later......... I pay Taxes, it did not work for too
long I guess

here endeth the geneology lesson
