The surname "AUSTRIE" is believed to have originated in the region of Austria, a country located in Central Europe. The name is thought to have emerged during the Middle Ages, possibly around the 12th or 13th century.

One theory suggests that the name "AUSTRIE" is derived from the German word "Österreich," which means "the eastern realm" or "the eastern kingdom." This name was originally used to refer to the Margraviate of Austria, a medieval principality that later became the Duchy of Austria and ultimately the modern-day republic of Austria.

Another possible origin of the name "AUSTRIE" could be from the Old High German word "ostar," meaning "east." This word was often used in combination with other words to form place names or surnames, indicating a person's or family's association with the eastern regions of the German-speaking lands.

One of the earliest recorded instances of the name "AUSTRIE" can be found in the Codex Traditionum Ecclesiae Coenobiensis, a medieval manuscript dating back to the 12th century. This document contains records of land transactions and properties in the region of present-day Austria, and it mentions individuals with the surname "AUSTRIE."

In the 17th century, there are records of a soldier named Matthias Austrie, who served in the Imperial Austrian Army during the Thirty Years' War. He was born in 1610 and participated in several notable battles of the conflict.
