Meaning/Pronunciation: Pronunciation: PaRk. Meaning: Dweller in, or near a park or enclosure; a park warden or gamekeeper.
Origin: Apparently this is an English surname, which is unsurprising coming from an Irish family of this time. We only have this part of the family traced back three generations, so…
Variations: None in our family line.
Relation to me: This is my maternal grandfather’s mother’s maiden name.
Ancestors:
i: Park, Mary, 1891–1984, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, US; Bjarne Bordewick, 2 sons
ii: Park, Robert, 1852-1930, Ireland (Dublin?); Elizabeth Curran, 2 sons, 5 daughters
iii: Park, John, ?-?, Ireland (?), ? Dunlop, only 1 son known
Looking for:
Any information on Robert Park’s family. I recently found his death certificate, which listed his father’s name and his mother’s maiden name, but I know nothing else about the family before they came to the US.
