Orgin of the names Dock and Osie
I have been doing family research and found that my Great-Grandmother had a brother whose name was Dock and a sister whose name was Osie. I have not come across any other Osie's but I have found quite a few Dock's in my search for family records. Does anyone out there know where either of these names orginated? I have been searching records in Texas, Oklahoma and Alabama mostly and this is where I have seen other men named Dock. We believe our family came from either Scotland or Ireland before arriving in the the US.
