I wonder if it would be possible to contact someone who does nothing but research the origin of names. Several years ago, I got suckered in by a company thaat claimed it could find a crest for every name in America. BULL. In America, the name Grummon is spelled Grummons, Grummond Grommon, Grummann, Gruman, and on and on and on. Talk to anyone, with one of these names, and they will claim no relationship to any of the other names. I have spoken with folks who have felt they were the only family alive with a name of one of those above. I have come across family trees, with simular names,and in every instance their tree begins in Fairfield County, CT with the marriage in 1632, of John GRUMMANT to Sarah TRY. I believe the name Grummon, is as rich in history, as any name in America. French Huguenots, that sprang from the loins the likes of the Marqueis de GRUMMONT. Once discribed in the biography of Lowell, by James Russell. "One might be inclined to believe that de GRUMMONT, may have been a bird of different feather" "He was one of the nobler buccaneers, along with Solonois and Morgan, that made Capt. Kidd look like a mere bottle imp by the side of Satan." Maybe someday I'll put it all together. Bill
