Menn History, Family Crest & Coats of ArmsEarly Origins of the Menn familyThe surname Menn was first found in Bedfordshire (Old English: Bedanfordscir), where the first record of the family was the singular Minna, listed here in the Assize Rolls of 1202. Over one hundred years later, Gostelynus Mynne was found in the Subsidy Rolls of Suffolk in 1327. 1 "This surname is derived from the name of an ancestor. 'the son of Min.' There is some evidence in favour of an old personal name Min, which was probably a nick. Minnie is still used as a girl's pet name for Emmeline. " 2 Another researcher agrees: "This series seems to point to Minn, (the same as Mynn) as an ancient personal name." 3 Early History of the Menn familyThis web page shows only a small excerpt of our Menn research.
