[Surname] Origin and meaning of Kruse/Krause
According to ancestry.com there is a old German word meaning mug or jug which could be the origin of this name (Kruse/Krause in subject) being a name used be makers and sellers of such items. Can anyone comment on the likelyhood of this? I am not great at German bus there is definitely a Danish word which is similar meaning mug so this sounds likely to me.
