Re: Where did your Surname come from?
My surname is Irish - Northern Ireland but it is an ancient Scottish name as well. Dates back to the 1300's. My Dad told me the history of my name and according to the link what he told me was true!Re: Where did your Surname come from?
- a man who was in charge of purchasing and distribution of all food and provisions within a royal or noble household or a monasteryRe: Where did your Surname come from?
Im recorded in the Doomsday book of 1086 as Anglo Saxon origin. I find this quite bizzare.. I know my very unusual name is also the name of a uk village but my grandparents were gypsies in Germany and i'd always been lead to believe it came from over there... hmmmm what a mystery!
