Facts About
Marsden
Marsden was originally topographical but like many topographical names became a place name, and was therefore most likely used as a locational surname. It is the name of a few places in England, derived from the elements ‘mearc’ which meant border, and ‘denu’ which meant valley. So Marsden was a name given to a town that was bordered by a valley. People who moved away from these places and to new areas were often assigned the name of their original home as a surname, as was customary with locational surnames. |
