Maddren Surname Meaning

From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

A parish in Cornwall.

Patronymica Britannica (1860) by Mark Antony Lower

Perhaps from St Maddarne or Madran, a vicarage in Penwith hundred. "Galfridus Monmothensis tells us in his chronicle that one Madan was a British king in these parts before Julius Cæsar landed in Britain, and probably that he lived or died here, in memory of whom this parish is called Madran, now Maddarne. Here also is Maddarne well of water, greatly famous for its healing virtues, of which Bishop Hall of Exeter speaks in his work entitled the Great Mystery of Godliness, &c." (Hals. ) But see Madron.
