[Surname] Surname: HOLLIER
I found this [my] surname in Kate Monk's Onomastikon under England and then tradenames. I'm just curious as to what exactly a Hollier's job is. It's not a word in the dictionary, so I'm assuming that it's a derivitive of another occupational name.Any ideas? I'd like to know what my ancestor did for a living [one of 'em had to have done]. :-D
