Re: The Uncommon Surname of 'Olds'
Thank you. This is quite interesting. Another source on the internet claimed that the name 'Olds' was from Old English and distinguished an older person from a younger, though I'm not sure that it was accurate.The Olds family married into the Cole family, also English. Cole is a much more common name than Olds. Can you tell me anything about its possible meaning and where it first originated?
