Harman
Harman
The surname of HARMAN was a baptismal name 'the son of Herman'. The name was found as early as
the Domesday Book of 1086 as Hermannus. It is occasionally a variant of the name Hardiman but in Leinster it is the modern form of an English name derived from the Old German Hereman, a name meaning a warrior. The form Harman is mainly found in Co. Louth. Ireland was one of the earliest countries to evolve a system of hereditary surnames. They came into being fairly generally in the 11th century, and indeed a few were formed before the year 1000. Nicholas Herman was documented in County Sussex in the year of 1273. Thomas Herman of Yorkshire, was listed in the Yorkshire Poll Tax of
1379. Harman Clynke, registered at Oxford University in the year of 1549. The name is also spelt as Herman, Hermon and Hermanson. Most of the European surnames in countries such as England, Scotland and France were formed in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. The process had started somewhat earlier and had continued in some places into the 19th century, but the norm is that in the tenth and eleventh centuries people did not have surnames, whereas by the fifteenth century most of the population had acquired a second name. At first the coat of arms was a practical matter which served a function on the battlefield and in tournaments. With his helmet covering his face, and armour encasing the knight from head to foot, the only means of identification for his followers, was the insignia painted on his shield and embroidered on his surcoat, the flowing and draped garment worn over the armour. In many parts of central and western Europe, hereditary surnames began to become fixed at around the 12th century, and have developed and changed slowly over the years. As society became more complex, and such matters as the management of tenure, and in particular the collection of taxes were delegated to special functionaries, it became imperative to distinguish a more complex system of nomenclature to
differentiate one individual from another. The associated arms are recorded in Sir Bernard Burkes General
Armory.

Gedeon
Gedeon
The surname of GEDEON was a locational name from a group of villages near County Huntingdonshire,
called Great, Little and Steeple Gidding. The name was originally derived from the Old English word GYDDINGAS, literally meaning 'The people of Gydda'. The name has many variant spellings which include GIDDINGS, GITTENS and GITTINGS. The rise of surnames, according to the accepted theory, was due to the Norman Conquest of 1066. It is often assumed that men 'adopted' their surnames. Some certainly did, but the individual himself had no need for a label to distinguish him from his fellows. The development of the feudal system made it essential that the king should know exactly what service each knight owed. Payments to and by the exchequer required that debtors and creditors should be particularized. Monasteries drew up surveys and extents with details of tenants of all classes in their services. Any description which identified the man was satisfactory, his father's name, the name of his land, or a nickname known to be his. The upper classes mostly illiterate, were those with whom the officials were chiefly concerned and among them surnames first became numerous and hereditary. Early records of the name mention Nicholas de Gedding, County Essex, 1273. Henry de Geddinge was documented during the reign of Edward 1 (1272 - 1307). Thomas Gidden of Yorkshire, was listed in the Yorkshire Poll Tax of
1379. Later instances of the name include Richard Gunning and Mary Giddings who were married at St. Dionis Backchurch, London in 1702. A notable member of the name was Joshua Reed Giddings (1795-
1864) the American Politician and anti-slavery campaigner, born in Athens, Pennsylvannia. He sat in congress from 1838 until 1859, and in 17861 he was appointed consul-general in Canada.
