Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I would suggest asking this question on the Strother genealogy message boards at:

and

Those who have been researching the Strother families may be able to give you a more accurate answer.

Ancestry.com suggests:

strother
Northern English and Scottish: topographic name from northern Middle English strother ??damp land overgrown with brushwood??, or a habitational name from any of the various places named with this word, as for example Strother in Tyne and Wear, or Struthers in Fife and Strathclyde.

Good luck,
Dave
