Family Name History The English family name Grasby is classified as being of habitation origin. Habitation names are those family names which are derived from either the location of the place of residence of the initial bearer, or from the name of the town or village from whence he hailed. In this instance, the surname Grasby can be traced to the place name so-called located in Lincolnshire, England. " In Grasby, Ulfekill had two carcurates of land taxable. Land for four ploughs(?) Value before 1066, sixty shillings" (Domesday Book 1086) The above quote taken from the Domesday Book, drawn up by the Normans in the wake of the Conquest of 1066 in order to evaluate the extent and value of England for taxation purposes, is evidence of the occurrence of this place name in early records. It was recorded as Grosebi in 1086 and would appear to be derived from the Old Scandinavian elements "grjot" meaning "gravelly" and "by" meaning "enclosure, settlement". Thus the surname signifies a "local of Grasby". Variants of the surname Grasby include Grassby. One of the earliest written references to the surname Grasby or to its variant include Hugh de Gresby who is recorded in the Transcripts of Charters relating to Charter Houses while Aelfward de Grassebi is recorded in the Pipe Rolls of Yorkshire in 1190. Later records include Adam de Grossebi who is listed in the Assize Rolls of Lincolnshire in 1219. ..........................................
