Table of God references in Genesis per chapter

I have been reading through Genesis and noticed that the names of God are quite interesting at various points.  Having read Gen 34 about Dinah's rape, it was striking that God's name was not mentioned once - and given the act and the response, it makes sense why not.  I wondered if this was the only chapter in Genesis where God's name was not mentioned.  Is there a way of graphing or creating a table of how many references there are to God's name in Logos?

I tried a simple search in ESV of God, Lord which picks up most names but couldn't work out how to split it by chapter.  Is that even possible?

Just thought I'd ask because it seemed an interesting problem.

P.S. the answer seems to be no mention of God in Gen 36 (a genealogy so not surprising) and Gen 37 (the beginning of the story of Joseph, more surprising)
