Hello Listers Ludij asked a question regarding the origin of our BARNETT name. If you had asked this question 5 months ago Ludij I couldn't have given you an answer however I can proudly say now, after 42 years of wondering, that it originated from BERZYNSKI (Jacob) originally from Kovno, who emigrated to Leeds and changed it in 1872 to BARNETT. Sorry. Barnett was a good Anglo name chosen by many new arrivals in England. Not too many consonants!
