Where does it come from?
I frequently search through sites such as this in the hope of finding my surname. Alas! to no avail. I have been led to believe that it comes from a village called Weir in Somerset but why I am not sure. I have seen it spelt Wearn or Wearne and I know that there are many of us in both America and Australia. Can anyone enlighten me as to the origin of this name?
