Help[Surname] Re: Syndergaard
in reply to a message by Cassius Rennel
I've done some searching and found that this name has no known origin. So I think I'll just break it up, and search it might work it might not.

It looks Nordic and a place-name. The spelling has probably changed. As it stand it appears to mean "sinner's yard/enclosure". I suspect it might originally have been more like Sondergard. If so it probably identifies a piece of land formerly part of a larger estate, later fenced off.
