I noticed on a copy made from a family bible that my 4th great grandmother's middle name was Cumy. I am pretty sure that is what it said. Has anyone heard of that name as possible Surname? I am wondering if it was her mother's maiden name. Any suggestions will be appreciated! Stephany
Stephany This "may" be one of those "transcription errors." With the "m" in script, especially that long ago, I'd be looking for "Curry" or "Cunny" as well. I have an embarrassing story about when I assigned the name "Janus" to a good Scot, based on a handwritten version of "James."
