GreatAudioBooks In Public Domain This ancient family name is of pre-Roman (Latin) Christian origin. It is derived from "crucis" meaning "cross". There are several possible origins, but the most popular is that it was originally a residential name for a person who lived in one of the many places called Cruc or Cros. These place names were associated with "crosses" set up to mark tribal meeting places and markets, and have little religious significance. In many cases, especially in southern Europe, family names were semi-religious. That is, it meant a layperson who was celibate and therefore not a clergyman, who carried the cross at Christian church festivals. Every European country has a form of this surname, including Cross or Crosse (English), Grose (French), Cruz or Cruces (Spanish), Kreuze or Kreuziger (German), and Vercruysse (Flemish). Early examples of surnames taken from authentic civil and religious registers are Richard del Crosse of the Assize Court Rolls of Lancashire, England, in 1285, and William atte Cros of the Subsidy Rolls of Suffolk in 1327 There are. Francisco Lopez Cruz was born on March 2, 1566 in Nuestra Senora de la Antigua, Valladolid, Spain, and Tomás de la Cruz on December 3, 1799 in Mission Santa Barabara, California. The first recorded spelling of the family name is Humphrey de Cruz, which was listed in the Hundreds Register of Oxfordshire, England, in 1273 during the reign of Edward I, known as the "Hammer of Scotland" from 1272 to 1307. The surname became necessary when the government introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as the poll tax. Over the centuries, surnames in all countries have continued to "evolve," often creating surprising variants from the original spellings.
