Sometimes it is possible to guess where a surname originated through surname distribution maps. These maps graphically display locations where surnames occurred at different periods in time. This strategy provides genealogists with a starting point for research in the birth country, when that information cannot be discovered through sources recorded in the new country of settlement. It works particularly well for less-common surnames and among families that have stayed in the same European locations for centuries.

Our Great Great Grandmother, Eli Hullinger's mother, was Mary Ann Kirk. We don't know much about her but the origin of the name is Norway.  So we have Norsky Hullingers.




Where did the name Kirk come from?
Last name: Kirk. Tweet.

This is an Anglo-Scottish surname which is ultimately of Norwegian pre 7th century origins. Found originally in the north of England and in Scotland, it can be either a topographical name denoting residence near a church, or a metonymic occupational name for someone employed in a church.
