Labossiere Family History

French (Labossière): variant of Laboissière (and in North America an altered form of this) a habitational name from a common placename La Boissière meaning ‘wooded area’ from bois ‘wood’. Possibly also from a feminine derivative of Bossier ‘cooper’ denoting the ‘wife of the cooper’.

The surname Labossière which is virtually non-existing in France is also found in Haiti (in any of the two possible senses; see also 1 above) where it is rare.
