(a) Local, 'of Colbourne,' a township in the parish of Catterick, North Riding of Yorkshire But I find no representatives in Yorkshire of any family of that name. The true origin of all the forms is (1). Since writing the above I find this view corroborated by Mr. Earwaker in his East Cheshire, ii. 131.
