Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Loree: French Lor㩥: topographic name from Old French or㩥 (with the article l(a)) denoting the outer edge or margin of a wood or field. Here is the Loree board at Rootsweb, where there are others researching the name: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.lore... One of the messages mention that some Loree's were from Germany and Italy. Also, there is a DNA project for that name (a lot of the time it is just for male descendents, but it doesnt mention if that is the case with this project). |
