SoURCE-An occupation or title.

German family names have gone
through virtually the same process
of formation as the English, with the
exception that they became stabilized
from mere descriptive surnames into
hereditary names at a period which
Jagged two or three centuries behind
the English That is to say, whereas
family names had become so well
established in England by the four
teenth and fifteenth centuries that
people had forgotten how they were
formed and what their original sig
nificances were that they began to
change the spelling in many cases to
agree with words that sounded like
them or into corrupted forms, at this
same period in Germany family
names were in a more elemental
stage of formation and their mean
ings had not been forgotten.
To put it another way. the period
of family name formation in Ger
many was closer to the period of
ing and general education. which. to-
gether with the fact that they have
had less time in which to change. eX
plains why German names as a whole
show less variation from their origi-
nal forms.
The family name of Zellner. which
is quite a common one. is simply the
German word for toll gatherer." lit
orally "toller The more ancient
form oF the word was "zoellner."
subsequently il has been spelled
"zollner." with an "umlaut" over the
o." indicating the original existence
it is easy to see how the family
name has come to be spelled vari-
ously with an "e" and "oe' or an 20"
in the first syllable.

There's such a lot of elaborate

an attitude would cause the disrup-

Why should we expect ii to succeed in

Would John Henry be allowed to
