ArchivesThe surname Ostercamp
Does anyone know the meaning of the surname Ostercamp? It was my paternal grandmother's maiden name and I'm trying to figure out the meaning and pronounciation, I only know that it could be German or Dutch in origin
Thank you very much in advance

Ostercamp is probably an alteration of German Osterkamp which means 'east(ern) field', though the Dutch equivalent Oosterkamp is also a possibility.
