Henderson Last Name Meaning 01

Henderson

 
This is an ancient Scottish name, the patronymic (meaning "son of") form of Hendry, a mainly Scottish variant of the personal name "Henry". Some bearers of the name Henderson are descended from Henrysons, the "d" being a common intrusive element in many languages between "n" and "r". Henry is from a Germanic personal name composed of the elements "haim" or "heim", home, and "ric", power. It was introduced into England by the Normans after the Conquest of 1066 as "Henri". In Scotland the Hendersons of Fordell in Fifeshire are the chief Lowland family of the name, and are believed to be descended from an old Dumfriesshire family of Henrysons. A branch of the Clan Gunn bears the name Henderson, and there is another Clan Henderson of Glencoe. An interesting namebearer, recorded in the "Dictionary of National Biography", was John Henderson (1747 - 1785), who was a notable actor of his day, considered second only to David Garrick. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of William Henrisone, which was dated 1374, in Scottish Papers, in the Public Records Office, during the reign of King Robert 11 of Scotland, 1371 - 1390. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

Dear readers, Dick was my maternal grandpa, Richard Erwin Morehead. His nickname was Dick. My mom's mother, and his first wife, died around 1970, or before that. After that, he married Skip. I've talked to her a few times but it seems that Skip never liked me, Joseph Scott Arnold, the Original Oatmeal, born 1985, February 11, Monday, 6 AM PST apx, in Forest Grove, Oregon, United States. It seems that Skip doesn't like Christians. I'm speculating but I read an article that she probably wrote on the passing of Dick. We will assume that she wrote it. In the article, it talked about Dick's son, Brian, and his wife, Lori, their kids.

After that, she wrote that Dick had a daughter named Danese Ann Gordon (whom married Steve). But she was not his daughter by blood I don't think but rather by law. I think Danese was more a step daughter. These details matter to me to say the least. Steve was like a son to Dick, Skip wrote. Danese was probably a daughter of Skip. Danese probably came from Skip and her first husband. If not, then Danese came from Skip and Dick.

Skip wrote that Dick had two daughters. She wrote about my mother, Marilyn Kathleen Morehead, born 1951, July 3rd. She just wrote my mom's name but did not write the name of my father. After that, Skip wrote about my mom's sister, Karen Williams. After that, it mentioned that Karen's husband, Jimmy Gene Woof Williams died as well that same year of 2008. She just wrote that he died but she at least wrote his name but she didn't write about my family. It seems that Skip has problems with me and my family. It also seems that Dick had problems with my mom as well. I am not here to dwell in the past and to cry.

The moral of the story is to seek sympathy and empathy. We should try harder to understand others more and to care for each other more but I don't think Skip was doing that as much as she could have. Instead, Skip and Dick ridiculed and mocked my mother for her marriage to my father. My mother endured hardships and she was misunderstood. I understand some of it as I live in Vietnam in the year 2015. I came to Vietnam in 2012 and have been here for the past three years and it is interesting. Life is full of surprises. I appreciate my mother more as I grow older in experiences and trials.

Thanks for reading.
