GREGORY. English
form of Latin Gregorius
(q.v.), meaning "watchman." (History of Christian Names,
Yonge, 1884). Usage: America, England, Scotland, Wales.
GREGORY. The well-known
personal name has not only become a surname, but has given rise to
various others, especially Gregorson, Gregg, Gregson, Griggs, Grigson,
Greig, Grix, and possibly Grocock. These forms are mostly Scotch,
and Grier and Grierson, not to mention Mac-Gregor, are entirely so.
The family of Gregory of Warwickshire is traced to
John G., lord of the manors of Freseley and Asfordby, co. Leicester, in
the XIII. cent. Shirley's Noble and Gentle Men. (Patronymica
Britannica, Lower, 1860)
