[Facts] Surname Custis Meaning
I’ve been reading a lot about the Washingtons, and as a name nerd, I’ve started to wonder about the origins of Martha Washington’s first husband’s surname Custis. I believe the Custis family were of English descent like most of the colonists, but there might have been some Scots-Irish; but I can’t remember. Anyone have any ideas of the meaning and origin of the name?“For once you have tasted flight, you will walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward; for there you have been and there you will long to return.” - Leonardo da Vinci
