    1. Re: [SURNAME-ORIGINS] Thank you

    3. That I couldn't tell you. All my source gives is the name EMMERING. I imagine it is entirely possible considering how close the names are in spelling and pronunciation. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Barbara Tom wrote: > Hi Barbara thank you for your response would you know if Emmering is a > root of Emmerling and it's variations.

    3. You might try Yahoo/Google. I tried it and there were several genealogy related items on just the first page. One or more might be of some help to you. Try the URL below. <http://google.yahoo.com/bin/query?p=Zolkos&hc=0&hs=0> Good luck.

In Australia it is pronounced as it looks but it was changed slightly from the Polish version so Australian's could pronounce it. It is pronounced more like Zoucosh in Poland.

    3. No. They appear to be two different names. EMMERING being German and meaning "One who came from Emmering (watery place)". EMRICK/EMRICK is English and means "Descendant of Emery (work, rule)".

    1. Re: [SURNAME-ORIGINS] IVILL, IVELL, IVIL etc.
    2. IVELL - Very complicated explanation here. (Teutonic) from the M.E. Ive, Ivo, Yvo, Domesday and Old Teutonic Ivo. Simply put it means "yew-tree." I always thought is was a form of "John." In Suffolk, the yew is still known as the "ife." Ivo de Taillebois was one of the most oppressive of the Conqueror's satellites. On a personal note, Ivo de Taillebois is our earliest known ancestor (Radcliffe). Ive Hook.--Hundred Rolls, 1274 A.D. Yvo Milner.--Yorkshire Poll-Tax, 1379 A.D. Ivel Faber.--Testa de Nevill Yves St. Laurent.--Designer, living 2001. Gary Radcliffe West Covina, CA [email protected]

    1. [SURNAME-ORIGINS] Tregunna
    2. Barbara responded: TREGUNNA (Cornish) habitation name, probably from a place in the parish of St. Breock, so called from Cornish 'tre' (homestead, settlement + a second element of unknown form and meaning). This name, or its variations may also be from various places called 'Tregon(n)a' or 'Tregenna', which are likewise from 'tre' + an unknown second element. One variation: Tregunno means 'a place in the parish of Breage'. =============== The "gunna" element was a personal name from the Old Norse which meant "war," "battle," or "cannon," or all of these meanings at different times. The word is related to the weapon we call "gun." Gary
