The surname of HONEY was a baptismal name 'the son of Honey' a term of endearment. After the Crusades in Europe, in the 11th 12th and 13th century people began, perhaps unconsciously, to feel the need of a family name, or at least a name in addition to the simple one that had been possessed from birth. The nobles and upper classes, especially those who went on the Crusades, observed the prestige and practical value of an added name, and were quick to take a surname. Early records of the name mention Richard Honney, who was documented in County Cambridge in the year 1273. Alicia Honneye was recorded in Yorkshire in the same year. Edward Honey of Yorkshire, was listed in the Yorkshire Poll Tax of 1379. Savill Godfrey and Amy Honey were married at St. George's, Hanover Square, London in the year 1771. Henry Harding and Mary Hony were married at the same church in 1776. The name has many variant spellings which include Honney, Honny, and Hony. At first the coat of arms was a practical matter which served a function on the battlefield and in tournaments. With his helmet covering his face, and armour encasing the knight from head to foot, the only means of identification for his followers, was the insignia painted on his shield and embroidered on his surcoat, the draped and flowing garment worn over the armour. Hereditary surnames were originally imported from France into England during the Norman Conquest of 1066. In the two centuries or so after the Conquest surnames were acquired by most families of major landholders, and many landed families of lesser importance. There appears to have been a constant trickle of migration into Britain between about the years 1200 and 150O, mostly from France and the Low Countries, with a small number of migrants from Scandinavia, Germany, Italy and the Iberian peninsular, and occasional individuals from further afield. During this period groups of aliens settled in this country as for example, the Germans who from the late 15th century onwards settled in Cumbria to work the metal mines. Immigration during this time had only a small effect on the body of surnames used in Britain. In many cases, the surnames of immigrants were thoroughly Anglicised. The late sixteenth century saw the arrival, mostly in London and the south-coast ports of large numbers of people fleeing from the war regions of France.

The surname of EADE was a baptismal name 'the son of Eddie', it was an ancient and still popular font name. Following the crusades in Europe from the 11th to the 13th century, a need was felt for a family name in addition to the name that had been given at birth. This was recognised by those of noble birth as it added prestige and practical advantage to their status. Most of the European surnames in countries such as England, Scotland and France were formed in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. The process had started somewhat earlier and had continued in some places into the 19th century, but the norm is that in the tenth and eleventh centuries people did not have surnames, whereas by the fifteenth century most of the population had acquired a second name. Early records of the name mention Symon filius Ede, County Huntingdonshire in 1273. Robertus Eade of Yorkshire, was listed in the Yorkshire Poll Tax of 1379. Robert Ede was documented in County Somerset during the reign of Edward III (1327-1377). Audrian Awdryan and Christiane Ede were married in London in 1565. Robert, son of Robert Eades was baptised at St. James's, Clerkenwell, London in 1670. James Eade and Abigail Chamberlain were married at St. George's, Hanover Square, London in the year 1773. A notable member of the name was John Eade (1810-1876) the Scottish theologian and scholar, born in Alva. He published 'Biblical Cyclopaedia' in 1848, and a critical history of the English Bible in 1876. William Ede married Margary Bishop at St. George's, Hanover Square, London in 1803. Surnames before the Norman Conquest of 1066 were rare in England having been brought by the Normans when William the Conqueror invaded the shores. The practice spread to Scotland and Ireland by the 12th century, and in Wales they appeared as late as the 16th century. Most surnames can be traced to one of four sources, locational, from the occupation of the original bearer, nicknames or simply font names based on the first name of the parent being given as the second name to their child. The associated arms are recorded in Sir Bernard Burkes General Armory. Ulster King of Arms in 1884.

Recorded as Theays, Trates, Tray, Trays, Trayes, Traise, Traies, Troy, Troyes and others, this is an unusual English surname. According to the International Genealogical Index it could possibly be a form of, or fused with, or cognate with, no less than twenty seven other surnames! It is true that anything is possible with surnames, and that probably most have a surprise somewhere. In our opinion though for most spellings as listed above, this is a surname which is ultimately French, and one that was introduced into England and later Scotland, after the famous Conquest of 1066. We believe that a study of the surname development would suggest that it was locational from the town of Troyes in the departement of Aube. This surname is first recorded in England in the year 1199 with that of Elyas de Troie, in the pipe rolls of Berkshire, whilst Copyn de Troys appears in the London registers for 1276. Later recordings for the city of London include Barbara Traise, christened at the church of St Mary at Hill, on September 29th 1566, John Tray who married Sarah Ellis at St Michaels Cornhill, on December 8th 1698, and John Trays, a christening witness at Christ Church, Southwark, on April 10th 1836.

The ancient history of the Coates name begins with the ancient Anglo-Saxon tribes of Britain. The name is derived from when the family resided at the cotes which was in turn derived from the Old English word cote, which means at the cottage, which denotes that the initial bearer of this surname lived in a little cottage. [1] Due to the general meaning of the name, there are a few places named Coates in Britain including places in Cambridgeshire, Gloucestershire, Nottinghamshire, and Lincolnshire. [1] The last dates back to the Domesday Book of 1086 when it was listed as Cotes. [2]

The surname Coates was first found in Staffordshire where the family are "descended from Richard de Cotes, who was probably son of Thomas de Coates, living in 1157, when the Black Book of the Exchequer was compiled." [3] At that time, he held large estates on the Salop, Staffordshire borders.

By 1273, the name was scattered throughout England as seen in the Hundredorum Rolls of that year: Egidius de Cotes, Norfolk; Robert de Cotes, Buckinghamshire; and Geoffrey de Cotes, Lincolnshire. And later the Yorkshire Poll Tax Rolls of 1379 listed: Thomas del Cotes; Johannes del Cotes; and Henricus del Cote as all holding lands there at that time. [4]

The earliest forms of hereditary surnames in Scotland were the patronymic surnames, which are derived from the father's given name, and metronymic surnames, which are derived from the mother's given name. Scottish patronymic names emerged as early as the mid-9th century. The patronyms were derived from a variety of given names that were of many different origins. The surname Carr is derived from the Gaelic name O'Ciarain or O'Ceirin, which itself comes from the Gaelic word ciar, which means black or dark brown.

The surname Carr was first found in Lancashire (located in northwest England and dates back to 1180), where one of the earliest records of a progenitor of the Clan was a John Ker, hunter, resident of Soonhope in 1190 AD. He is believed to have received a grant of land from the Crown and settled in the Border country of Scotland soon after the Norman invasion moved northwards.

Within a century, two main branches evolved from two brothers, Ralph and John who lived near Jedburgh in c. 1330. They were both listed in the Roll of Battle Abbey as having descended from the Norman Karre. [1] The Kerrs of Cessford were descended from Ralph, and the Kerrs of Ferniehurst were descended from John.

Now we draw the reader's attention to a slightly different origin with a different timeline but similar. "Two brothers, of Anglo-Norman descent., who bore this name [Karre] are said to have settled in Scotland during the 13th century. No one known which was the elder of the two, for 'neither house would yield the superiority to the other, forming two distinct races of war-like Border chieftains.' The Kerrs of Fernihirst are represented by the Marquesses of Lothian, the Kers of Cessord by the Dukes of Roxburghe." [2]

We believe that the reference to the 13th century is a typo, as it should have read 14th century (the 1300's) not the 1200's.

The surname Briggs was first found in the Rotuli de Oblatis et Finibus, King John where the personal name Brig and de Brug occur. [4]

Later in Yorkshire, Robert del Brig was listed there at Wakefield in 1275. [3] Later in Cumberland, Alexander del Brigg was registered in the Subsidy Rolls of 1332. [3]

The Hundredorum Rolls of 1273 listed Hugh ate Brugge and Roger ate Brugge in Oxfordshire while the Yorkshire Poll Tax Rolls of 1379 listed Juliana del Bryg, Robertus atte Brig and Ricardus atte Brygg. [5]

Between the 11th and 15th century there were numerous recordings of various members of the family name as they flourished in the north and into Scotland. "Duncanus Brigis appears in Murthlac, Banffshire, 1550 and Catherine Brigs was married in Edinburgh, 1611." [6]

Notable amongst the family name during their early history was Henry Briggs (c. 1561-1630), an English mathematician, who developed long division and popularized common logarithms, eponym of the Briggs lunar crater and Briggsian logarithms. He "was born at Warley Wood, in the parish of Halifax, Yorkshire, in February 1560, according to the entry in the Halifax parish register. Briggs was 'descended from the ancient family of that name at Salle in Norfolk.' There is evidence that Richard Briggs, the brother of Henry Briggs, became sub-master and afterwards head-master of Norfolk school. " [7] William Briggs (1642-1704), was an English physician and oculist...
