Peeblesshire / Re: Stobo Surname Origin - Limited Information
« on: Wednesday 24 January 18 22:11 GMT (UK) »
Hi, Yes the name does come from Peeblesshire, and there is a small town called Stobo there.
As I understand it the name comes from a Viking word meaning 'Stump'
Everything else I have read hear I have seen before and have heard of Archibald Stobo and Traders from Glasgow, I am descended from Stobos who were Farmers just south of Glasgow in the Avondale Area.
Keep in touch....
