tree I am also climbing a huge learning curve. Do

Tom Greathead to a fellow
tourist.
Yes Sir! We are a
very ancient family. That is the bust of one of
my earliest ancestors |
The
surname GREATHEAD seems to mean just that; someone
with a remarkably large head, in the real or perhaps colloquial sense, or
maybe they enjoyed rather a large ego. I like to think maybe the
large head contains brains used to achieve whatever we choose to do. It
corresponds to the French Grossête and the German Groeskopf. My
maiden name was GREATHEAD and I am attempting a One-Name Study on the name
of GREATHEAD. This will include eventually everyone who enjoyed the name
by birth, adoption, marriage or by choice, both living and dead.
I am keen to contact all GREATHEAD's
and anyone related to them. If you can help or want to research any
particular chart with me do let
me
know.
