Tedbury Family History

Tedbury Surname Meaning

from Tedburrow Farm in Hemyock (Devon) which is recorded as Tedborough in 1566.

The place appears to be named with Old English burg ‘fortress’ as the final element but this along with the origin of the initial element cannot be certain due to a lack of medieval forms.
