Re: Balliol
So would I be correct in assuming the Rom simply picked it up from the surname?I know Rom have been known to adopt names from the people of the places where they've settled or travelled though.Also, the Norman conquest was the 1000s and the Rom I found using the name were traveling through Aberdeen, Scotland in early to mid 1500s so the name could have spread by that time, right?
