The history of the last name Moné

The surname MONE is believed to have originated in England during the medieval period. It is thought to be a locational name, derived from a place name that has since fallen out of use or been altered over time. One possibility is that it stems from the Old English words "mone" or "mone-leah," which referred to a meadow or pasture.

In its early days, the name was likely spelled in various ways, such as MONE, MOONE, or MOAN, reflecting the inconsistencies in written records and regional dialects of the time. Some experts have also suggested a connection to the Old French word "moyne," meaning a monk, indicating that the name could have been given to someone who lived near a monastery.

One of the earliest recorded instances of the name MONE can be found in the Pipe Rolls of Northamptonshire from the late 12th century, where a person named Radulfus Mone is mentioned. This suggests that the name was already in use by that point.

In the 14th century, the Poll Tax records of Yorkshire list a Thomas de Mone, providing further evidence of the name's presence in medieval England. Additionally, the Subsidy Rolls of Staffordshire from 1327 mention a John Mone.

Another is John Mone, a 17th-century English clergyman and author who wrote several religious works, including "The Life and Death of the Reverend Mr. John Mone" (1673).

In the 18th century, there was a Scottish mathematician named Francis Mone, who made contributions to the field of calculus and differential equations.

Moving into the 19th century, one notable figure was William Mone, an English historian and antiquarian who published several works on the history and folklore of various regions in England.
