Mauger Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
(French-Teut.) a French descendant of the O.Ger. Madelger = Council-Spear [the Continental Teutonic cognate of Old English mæðel, speech, council, etc. + Old Saxon O.H.Ger. gér, a spear]
Mauger, archbishop of Rouen, uncle to William the Conqueror, in consequence of great irregularities, abdicated his see and settled in the island of Guernaey. There he met with a lady of great beauty called Gisella or Guille, with whom, without the sanction of the Church, he formed an intimacy that resulted in a numerous progeny, some of whom took their father's, others their mother's name. "Hence," observes a correspondent, "Guilles and Maugers are as plentiful as blackberries in the Channel Islands." From one of the family sprang Sir Matthias Mayer or Mayor, a Jerseyman, and a soldier under Henry VII. who obtained a grant of arms and was lineal ancestor of B. Major, Esq., of Hurdsley, co. Hants, whose daughter Dorothy married Richard, afterwards Lord Protector Cromwell. The Maugers were very prominent in the early history of the Channel Islands.
John, Erenger Mauger, Normandy, 1180-95; eight of the name, 1198, Norm. (Magni Rotuli Scaccarii Normanniae); Robert and Walter Mauger, Engl. c. 1272 (Rotuli Hundredorum).
