Surnames of the United Kingdom (1912) by Henry Harrison

Gomm is an ancient name in this part of England, and, as Gom, occurred in Cambridgeshire six centuries ago (H. R.). There was a James Gomme in Rowsham, Bucks, in 1724; and another James Gomme, an eminent antiquarian, of High Wycombe, in this county, died in 1825. The wife of Sir William Maynard Gomme, K. C. B., who was himself probably of this stock, was buried at Stoke Poges in 1837 (Lips.).
