RUCK Family History
This most interesting and unusual surname is of Anglo-Saxon origin, and is a nickname surname given to someone who bore a fancied resemblance to a rook, or to one who had very dark hair. The derivation is from the Olde English pre 7th Century "hroc", a rook. Rooke and Rook are other surnames deriving from this source, while Rook(e)s is a patronymic form. However, some early examples of the surname such as Robert of ye Rook (London, 1318) and Henry del Rook (Staffordshire, 1332), point clearly to a local name of some kind. The first of these recordings could be a house sign, while the second may be a variant of "Rock", from the Middle English "rocc", rock...Select Audience

My paternal Grandfather's birth family are a mystery, but my Dad did a DNA test a few years ago. I have been able to establish through DNA matches, that we are descendants of Laurence Ruck (born 1819 Newington, Kent, England) and Mary Ann Matthews (born 1822 Pennal, Merienethshire, Wales).
I would love to hear from anyone who is related to this family.?
Best wishes
