Question:

How can I find out the history and origin of my family name?

My family name is Brice. I always thought it was of German desent, but recently many people have told me that it is not. I have tried google and other search engines and all I get is sites wanting money. Any suggestions???

Thanks as always!


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Brice or Bryce is a Scottish surname. It may be also found elsewhere. Get a copy of The Surnames of Scotland by George. F. Black from your library and it will tell you the origins etc.
