Hello everyone, Some time ago I started a one-name study of the COSSAR and CROSSER surname (including COSSER, COSSOR, CROSSAR and CROSSOR) and am seeking references all around the world, in all time periods. The surname seems to have originated in the Scottish borders, although there are several lines (including my own) springing from Lanarkshire. Descendants of these Lanarkshire lines today live in New Zealand, Canada, USA and London England. Descendants of Berwickshire lines are similarly widespread. I have many Scottish trees in my records as well as quite a few English "bushes." I would be very pleased to exchange information. I am a member of the Guild of One-Name Studies. If you have a COSS*R or CROSS*R connection, however distant or remote, I would love to hear from you. regards, Ann COSSAR London England cossar@one-name.org http://www.cossar.org.uk from Ann Cossar acossar@cossarlind.win-uk.net
