Maude Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
Dims. of Matilda: v. under Malkin ante.
A remarkable contraction of De Monte Alto, De Montalt, or "of the high mountain." The first of the family in England was Eustachius de Monte Alto, who came hither at the Conquest among the followera of Hugh Lupus, Earl of Chester. From him sprang the Barons Montalt, whose elder line became extinct in the XIV. cent. Many younger branches survive under the name of Maude, and one of them, Viscount Hawarden, still enjoys the second title of Baron Montalt. According to Burke's Commoners, the name was originally derived from a place in Italy.
De Mouhaut or De la Mare. See De la Mare. This branch of De la Mare descends from Ranulph, Dapifer of Chester 1093, whose sons Robert de Montalt and William de la Mara occur in Yorkshire 1130 (Rot. Pip.). Roger de Mara, son of the former, was a benefactor to Roche Abbey, York (Mon. i. 839), and from him descended Roger de Montalt, summoned as a baron 1299. William, above mentioned, had issue Simon de Muhaut, witness to a charter of Cecilia de Rumelli (Mon. ii. 101) for Bolton Abbey, York; and to another charter with Simon Mohaut, his son (i. 655). The latter held lands of the honour of Skipton, York, 1165 (Liber Niger). John de Montalt of Matherley, York, gave lands to Drax (Burton, Mon. Ebor.), and in 1300 Adam de Mohaut or Maude was returned as liable for military service in person against the Scots (Parliamentary Writs). Hence the Maudes of Holling, Woodhouse, Alverthorpe, and Riddlesden, York, from the latter of whom sprang the Maudes, Barons Montalt, Viscounts Hawarden.
(English), anciently de Monte Alto, Montalt, and Moald, High mount.
