GOSFORTH CROSS
GOSFORTH CROSS
Surname or Lastname
English
English : topographic name for someone who lived by a stone cross, from Old Norse kross (see Cross 1) + Middle English man.Altered spelling of German Crossmann or Crössmann; the first may be a habitational name from any of several places called Crossen in Saxony, Brandenburg, and East Prussia, or derived from Grossmann. The second is possibly from Middle Low German krÅs, krüs ‘pitcher’, and hence a metonymic occupational name for maker of these; alternatively it may be a metonymic occupational name for a butcher, from Middle High German kroese ‘tripe’.
Surname or Lastname

English : probably either a topographic name from Middle English whin ‘whin’, ‘gorse’ (Old Norse hvin) + wra(y) ‘nook or corner of land’ (Old Norse vrá), or a habitational name from Whinneray in Gosforth, Cumbria, which may have the same origin.

English
English : topographic name for someone who lived near a stone cross set up by the roadside or in a marketplace, from Old Norse kross (via Gaelic from Latin crux, genitive crucis), which in Middle English quickly and comprehensively displaced the Old English form crūc (see Crouch). In a few cases the surname may have been given originally to someone who lived by a crossroads, but this sense of the word seems to have been a comparatively late development. In other cases, the surname (and its European cognates) may have denoted someone who carried the cross in processions of the Christian Church, but in English at least the usual word for this sense was Crozier.Irish : reduced form of McCrossen.In North America this name has absorbed examples of cognate names from other languages, such as French Lacroix.
