Ontario Hydro News: Up into mediaevai times, most people were known by their Christian namnes alone. Surnames did not exist. There came a time, however, when there were too many plain Johns, Alfreds, Rowlands and Roberts running around. Some- thing had to be done to dis- tinguish b one from another in village records. And so one John became known as John of the Hall, and finaliy John Hall, because he lived near the lord of the man- or's hall or great house. An- other became John of the Mead, and finally John Mead, because* he lived at the mead or mnead- ows; another John the Smith, and then John Smith because he was a smith by trade; another John Reed or Reid because he had red hair. Usuaily surnames became attached ta a family gradually, over several genera- tions. Because William tvas a fav- orite name in mediaeval times. as it is today, Wiiliamson and Wilson are now common.
