Frequency and Distribution of the Surname Sercombe

Sercombe is an unusual surname. In 1881, only about 500 people called Sercombe (including variant spellings) were alive in Britain, out of a total population of almost 30 million. There are probably only a few more today: about 150 Sercombe households are listed in British telephone directories, and a surname database based on official British government data counts 583 Sercombes, 20 Surcombes, and 11 Sircombes (it is said to overcount by about 7 percent). The name is found in even smaller numbers in Argentina, Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, India, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United States, presumably all British emigrants and their descendants. (Switchboard has U.S. telephone listings for 40 Sercombes, 2 Sercombs, 1 Sircom, and 1 Sircomb. PaginasBlancas has telephone listings for 5 Sercombes in Argentina.)

Within Britain, the name is quite geographically concentrated. In 1881, about 74 percent of the 500 British Sercombes were living in the county of Devon or had been born there. Many of the remainder were in nearby Gloucestershire and Somerset, which together accounted for another 11 percent. Thirty years earlier, in 1851, of the fewer than 300 Sercombes in Devon, almost all were in the city of Exeter (about 24 percent) or the nearby rural parishes to its south and west, particularly Dunsford (26 percent). The mobility of modern society has made the pattern less extreme, but it remains: in the decade from 1996 to 2005, 38% of Sercombe births in England and Wales were in Devon, and more than half of those were in just the Exeter registration district.

Major Family Groupings

Was there just one original family called Sercombe, from whom all subsequent Sercombes are descended, or were there several independent origins of the name? I am still far from finding out, but I hope that the information on this page and on the linked pages of source material (see Sources of Information, below) will eventually help to answer that question. I do already know that at least 163 of the 500 or so Sercombes alive in Britain in 1881 were descendants of John Syrcombe, who had six children christened at Dunsford between 1714 and 1730. At least another 33 were descendants of Richard Sercombe, who had 11 children christened at Dunsford between 1709 and 1752. (The youngest child of Richard's second wife was a great-aunt before her ninth birthday!). At least another 75 British Sercombes in 1881 were descendants of Robert Sercombe, possibly Richard's son, who was married in 1756 at Dean Prior and whose sons raised large families at Cornwood. (Dean Prior and Cornwood are both southwest of Dunsford in the direction of Plymouth). Almost certainly more than half of all Sercombes alive today are descended from these three men.

My own Sercombe ancestors, who were in Richard's branch of the family, lived in Exeter in the mid-1800s. My great grandmother Alice Sercombe was born there in 1849, the youngest of eight children of a wine and spirits merchant. Her father and two uncles came to Exeter from Bovey Tracey, about 10 miles to the southwest on the edge of Dartmoor, where their father had been a soap boiler. The generation before that lived in Hennock, adjacent to Bovey Tracey, and the one before that came from Dunsford.

Spelling Variations and Confusion with Other Surnames

Spelling, even of surnames, was not standardized until at least the 19th century. Before then, people just spelled the way they heard. You may find the same person's name written as Sercombe, Sircomb, Surcum, Syrcombe, or even occasionally Sharcombe or Circum. Later, particularly as literacy became more universal, the spelling Sercombe became standard. Outside the Exeter area, however, where the name was less familiar to the keepers of official records, the standardization sometimes settled on other spellings, particularly Surcombe (in and near Plymouth, descended from William Surcombe of Lifton, Devon); Sircombe (in Tewkesbury, descended from Henry Sircombe of Exeter and Tewkesbury); and Sircom (in Bristol, descended from John Sircome of Bristol). Just because you find the same spelling for several generations of your ancestors, don't assume it was always that way.

The problem of irregular spellings has an interesting silver lining. Before about 1700, but only very rarely after that, it is common to find spellings like Shercombe and Shercom, with SH instead of S. This is surely a clue to the name's early pronunciation (especially because, as noted in the next section, some of the possible locations for the origin of the name are still spelled Shircombe today). Similarly, the frequent absence of the final B in records going back to at least the 1600s demonstrates that this letter was already silent by that time, despite its survival into the standard spelling today.

There are several early examples of families who were sometimes called Sercombe and sometimes Southcombe. Today, Southcombe is a distinct surname, associated with North Devon rather than the Dunsford area. In at least one case (my own family, descended from Richard Southcumbe or Sircombe of Tedburn St. Mary) people consistently called Sercombe have ancestors who were more often called Southcombe. It is not yet clear, however, whether these two surnames truly share a common origin. It is possible that the confusion was sometimes only a recordkeeping error, though even that may be a clue to early pronunciation.

There are also examples of confusion with the Cornwall and West Devon name Seccombe. So far, such cases seem to be isolated.

Map References

In this section, U.K. grid references are linked to the Ordnance Survey Get-a-map site, references to maps from the 1890s mean historical Ordnance Survey maps found at old-maps.co.uk, and the word map in parentheses is linked to Google Maps (the U.K. version for places in England, otherwise the U.S. version).

The surname Sercombe is clearly geographical in origin. The word combe means "a deep hollow or valley", or specifically, in the South of England, "a hollow or valley on the flank of a hill" or "a steep short valley running up from the sea coast" (OED). It is found as an element of many English place names, especially in and near Devon. When English surnames became established, typically in the 14th century, it was common to take the name of the place where one lived. (It was also common, especially in larger settlements, for migrants to take the name of where they came from but had now left. For our purposes, the two are equivalent.) So probably the surname originated in one or more places called something like Sercombe. Where?

Places in Devon

One intriguing possibility, considering the frequency of the surname in Dunsford, is a property there called Leate and Circombe, which is mentioned in the Fulford Estate rent book for 1776. The rent book for 1800 mentions Leate and Shercombe and Leat, Shercombe, and Northzeal. (In both 1776 and 1800 the tenants were named Connett, not Sercombe.) A modern Ordnance Survey map shows The Leat (grid reference SX818900) adjacent to South Zeal, about a mile northeast of Dunsford village. An 1890 map shows Leat at the same location and marks North Zeal next to South Zeal. Neither map shows anything nearby that resembles Circombe or Shercombe. Both Leat and South Leat (perhaps an error for South Zeal?) appear as residences in the 1821 census of Dunsford, but Circombe/Shercombe does not. In Southwest dialect a leat is "an open watercourse to conduct water for household purposes, mills, mining works, etc." (OED).

Dwellings called Sercombes and Sercombes Cottage in Dunsford and the nearby parish of Tedburn St. Mary seem to be named after a person called Sercombe rather than vice versa. So surely is Sercombes Gardens (map), a road in Starcross, Devon, that is probably named for one of the basket-making families descended from Thomas Sercombe or Southcombe.

An estate called Sercombe is mentioned in the 1749 will of Francis Hamlyn of Widecombe-in-the-Moor, Devon. According to the Widecombe History Group, this is a local pronunciation of Southcombe (SX713764), which is a few hundred yards southwest of Widecombe village. (An abstract of Hamlyn's will appears in Worthy's Devonshire Wills. The original is now lost.)

George Lock of Sercombes at West Week is named as master in a 1773 apprenticeship indenture by the poor law overseers of Chulmleigh, Devon. (This is noted in a Devon Record Office catalog at Access to Archives.) West Week (SS732168) is about three miles northeast of Chulmleigh village. Neither a modern Ordnance Survey map nor one from 1891 shows anything nearby that resembles Sercombes. Perhaps the final s means that this place too was named for a person rather than vice versa.

There is a Sharcombe Farm near Luppitt, Devon (ST176063). The 1842 tithe apportionment for Luppitt noted that the farm included a Sharcombe Copse. Two early references to this farm are recorded on a website about the Rogers family of Luppitt: Mary Rogers of Sharcombe was buried at Luppitt in 1695, and Nicholas Rogers of Sharcombe was a Luppitt churchwarden in 1622.

Sherracombe (a farm, SS718358), Sherracombe (a wooded combe), Sherracombe Wood, Sherracombe Ford, and Sherracombe Lane are about two miles east of Brayford, Devon, in the parish of North Molton. There is an ongoing archeological dig at Sherracombe Ford, investigating a large iron smelting site from the late Iron Age or early Roman period.

Southcoombe (SS957059) and Southcoombe Bungalow are about two miles north of Silverton, Devon.

Places in Somerset

Crossing from Devon into Somerset, there is a Shircombe Farm (SS846308) about a mile west of Hawkridge, as well as Wester Shircombe, Shircombe Brake, and Shircombe Rocks nearby. (The rocks are shown on an 1891 Ordnance Survey map but not a modern one.) All these are on the left bank of Dane's Brook, which here forms the county boundary between Somerset and Devon. Could the element Shir- mean "shire" in this case? Although maps show the valley here to be quite steep, the tempting meaning of "sheer" seems unlikely since the OED gives no citations for that usage of sheer before 1800. About six miles to the east is another Shircombe Farm, on Shircombe Lane about a mile west of Brompton Regis, Somerset (SS935316). Nearby are Little Shircombe (SS936325) and (on an 1891 Ordnance Survey map but not a modern one) Shircombe Cottage.

A "mansion" called Sharcombe, in Dinder, Somerset, is mentioned in the book Somerset by G.W. and J.H. Wade (1949?). A modern Ordnance Survey map shows Sharcombe Farm, Sharcombe Park, and Sharcombe Grange on the north side of Dinder (ST576446). According to an estate agent website (viewed Aug 2006) there is also a Sharcombe Lane there. About two miles north of Dinder, another Sharcombe is the farmhouse of Middle Farm (ST575475) on the south side of West Horrington, Somerset. (This is mentioned in minutes from a 2005 meeting of the Mendip District Council Planning Board.) A business data website (viewed Aug 2006) lists a company with the address Sharcombe House, Peace Close Lane, West Horrington; that appears to be the same place.

Sercombe Park (map), a road in Clevedon, Somerset, is undoubtedly named for the family of William George Sercombe, who was editor of the Mercury newspaper in Clevedon.

Other Places in Britain

Much further afield is a Sharcombe on Old Guildford Road, Camberley, Surrey (SU902557). This place is unbuilt except for a cellphone mast, according to two documents from the Planning Applications Committee of the Surrey Heath Borough Council.

And rather improbably, Shire Combe (SS542874) is a crag on the coast about six miles west of Swansea, Glamorgan.

Places Outside Britain

In New Zealand, Sercombe Road in Geraldine (map) is presumably named for the family of Rupert Theodore Walton Sercombe, who is buried at Pleasant Valley, near Geraldine. Sircombe Road in Rangiatea, near Otorohanga (38°12'43" S, 175°20'10" E), is presumably named for the family of Richard Lewis Stanley Sircombe, who was of Rangiatea Road, Otorohanga, in 1915.

In Australia, there is a Sercombe Grove (map) in Hawthorn, Victoria (a suburb of Melbourne). I don't know which of the Australian Sercombe families this is named for.

In the United States, North Sercombe Road (map) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is presumably named for the family of John Sercombe, who were early settlers in the Milwaukee area and became prominent local businessmen.

      1. The Family of Mary Harris
        
        Mary HARRIS, who married Jacob SERCOMBE, mentioned these relatives in her 1811 will: her half-brother John HARRIS, exciseman, residing in or near London; her half-brother Thomas HARRIS of London, builder; her half-sister Elizabeth WREFORD of Kingsbridge, Devon, widow; her half-sister Joanna MUTTON, wife of Joseph MUTTON of Teignmouth, Devon, gentleman; her cousin Mary LAMBSHEAD, wife of George LAMBSHEAD of Bovey Tracey, mariner. An 1815 codicil distributed a bequest from her late half-brother William HARRIS. The will of Mary's nephew William SERCOMBE (made 1809) mentioned John HARRIS senior of Bovey Tracey, yeoman. Both wills appointed John WEEKS of Bovey Tracey, yeoman, as a trustee.
        
        I have not yet been able to identify Mary's parents or where she was born. Two clues so far: (1) the will of Thomas HARRIS, builder, of 61 Green Street, Grosvenor Square, London, was proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury in 1826, and (2) George LAMBSHEAD and Mary FRENCH were married at Bovey Tracey in 1788.
        
        Jacob SERCOMBE, chr. 6 Apr 1738 at Dunsford, m. 26 Nov 1786 at St. Petrock, Exeter, Mary HARRIS (b. ca. 1749, d. 19 Jun 1816, bur. 22 Jun 1816 at Bridford), d. 19 Feb 1802, bur. 21 Feb 1802 at Bridford. At their marriage in 1786, Jacob and Mary were both of Exeter St. Kerrian; the marriage witnesses were Thomas SERCOMBE (probably Jacob's brother) and Joanna BASTARD (see sidebar). In the 1791 Universal British Directory, Jacob was listed as a grocer, in Fore Street, Exeter. In 1795, calling himself a grocer and salt merchant of Exeter, he erected a memorial to his parents at Bridford. At his burial in 1802, he was a grocer of Exeter St. Petrock. At Mary's burial in 1816, she too was of Exeter St. Petrock. Mary made her will on 26 Nov 1811. It was witnessed by John D. OSBORN and Thomas A. CAUSEY and included bequests for four of her half-siblings and one of her cousins, the residue being left in trust for John SERCOMBE, son of her late husband's nephew William. Edward EARDLEY of Exeter, china and earthenware dealer, and John WEEKS of Bovey Tracey, Devon, yeoman, were to act as executors and trustees. Mary added a codicil to this will on 1 Mar 1815 after receiving a bequest of £276 from another of her half-brothers. The will was proved at London in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury on 27 Feb 1817. [ref. 1p,1v,1x,2g,4b,8i]
      2. Susanna SERCOMBE, chr. 7 May 1741 at Dunsford. [ref. 1v]
        
        Connections to the Bastard Family
        
        Naboth BASTARD married Joanna SHILSON in 1749 at Bovey Tracey. They had four daughters baptized there: Joanna (1755), Julia (1756), Mary (1758), and Julian (1762). Naboth was a freeholder at Bovey Tracey in 1771 and 1783. His wife died in ____. In 1786, his daughter Joanna was a witness at the marriage of Jacob SERCOMBE. In 1787, Naboth remarried, but he died the next year, and in 1790 his young widow married Jacob's first cousin John SERCOMBE. In 1793, Naboth's daughter Julian married Jacob's nephew William SERCOMBE, with her sister Mary as a witness.
        
        Was there another connection between the SERCOMBE and BASTARD families that led to all these links?
        
        William SERCOMBE, chr. 2 Aug 1761 at Bridford, m. 18 Aug 1793 at St. Petrock, Exeter, by licence, Julian BASTARD (d. 8 Nov 1802 "after a lingering illness", bur. 14 Nov 1802 at Bovey Tracey), d. 16 Nov 1807, bur. 22 Nov 1807 at Bovey Tracey. Witnesses at William's marriage in 1793 were Jacob SERCOMBE (presumably his uncle) and Mary BASTARD. At his wife's death in 1802, a grocer, of Exeter. At his death in 1807, a grocer and salter, of Exeter. William's will, in which he called himself a salt merchant and grocer of Exeter, was proved in the Principal Registry of the Bishop of Exeter on 14 May 1809. In it he appointed as his trustee executors John HARRIS senior of Bovey Tracey, yeoman (possibly one of the half-brothers of Mary, widow of William's uncle Jacob SERCOMBE); John WEEKS of Bovey Tracey, yeoman (subsequently also a trustee of Mary's will); William CAWLEY of Exeter, gentleman; and William TAVENER of Dunsford, gentleman (possibly the husband of William's great-aunt Alice SERCOMBE). William left all his effects, with a total value of less than £3500, to his son John (or if John died without issue before the age of 21, which he did not, to John WEEKS). In 1811, described in Mary's will (posthumously) as a grocer of Exeter. The date 10 Dec 1816 is noted without explanation in the tax record of William's will.

        William SERCOMBE, chr. 15 Oct 1797 at St. Petrock, Exeter, d. 3 Jan 1805, bur. 6 Feb 1806 at Bridford. At his burial in 1805, of Exeter St. Mary Arches. [ref. 1p,1x,4b]
        John SERCOMBE, b. ca. 1798 at Bovey Tracey (according to the 1861 census), chr. 10 Feb 1799 at St. Petrock, Exeter, d. reg. Q2 1868 at St. Thomas R.D. In 1851, a gentleman, a patient at St. Thomas Hospital for Lunatics, Moreton Road, St. Thomas, Devon. In 1861, a grocer, a patient at St. Thomas Hospital for Lunatics, Brownhill House, St. Thomas. (The 1841 census return for St. Thomas Hospital for Lunatics is missing.) [ref. 1n,1x,3b,3c]

        The Connection to WHSmith
        
        Two brothers, Rupert Clampitt Sercombe and Edwin Sercombe, married two sisters, Louisa Smith and Emma Sophia Smith. Louisa and Emma were daughters of William Henry Smith, Sr., proprietor of the WHSmith chain of bookshops and stationers.
        
        Their brother, William Henry Smith, Jr., who took over the business from his father, went into politics, was elected to parliament, and held several cabinet posts. He served for several years as First Lord of the Admiralty, despite a complete lack of naval experience. This inspired the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta H.M.S.
