Origin: ALEXANDER, a surname in Scotland, probably derived originally from the first king of that name, but chiefly borne by the earls of Stirling and their descendants. The family of Alexander, earls of Stirling, is traced from a remote period by genealogists, who derive it from a branch of the Macdonalds. Somerled, king of the Isles, who lived in the reign of Malcolm the Fourth, and was slain in battle about 1164, had by his second wife Effrica, daughter of Olave the Red, Icing of Man, three sons, Dugall, Reginald, and Angus. After Somerled's death, the Isles, with the exception of Arran and Bute, which had come to him with his wife, descended to Dugall, his eldest son by his second marriage. Dugall also possessed the district of Lorn. On his death the Isles did not immediately pass into the possession of his children, hut appear, according to the Highland law of succession, to have been acquired by his brother Reginald, who, in consequence, assumed the title of king of the Isles.
[Skene's History of the Highlanders, vol. ii. p. 49.]
The portion of property which fell to Reginald's share on his father's death consisted of Islay among' the Isles, with Kintyre and part of Lorn. The genealogists, of the noble family of Stirling have confounded this Reginald with his cousin Reginald the Norwegian, Icing of Man and the Isles, who was contemporary with him, and who was the son of Godred the Black, king of Man, the brother of Effrica, Somerled's second wife. Reginald, lord of Islay and South Kintyre and Icing of the Isles, was the father of Donald, the progenitor of the clan Donald, who had three sons, Roderick, Angus, and Alexander, Roderick's male descendants became extinct in the third generation. The second son, Angus, lord of Islay, the Angus Mohr of the Sennachies, and the first of his race who acknowledged himself a subject of the King of Scotland, was ancestor of the earls of Ross, lords of the Isles, of the lords Macdonald, and of the earls of Antrim in Ireland. His grandson, John, lord of the Isles, took for his second wife, the princess Margaret, daughter of Robert II., and his third son by her, Alexander, Lord of Lochaber, forfeited in 1431, had two sons, Angus, ancestor of the Macalisters of Loup, Argyleshire, and Alexander Macalister, who obtained the lands of Menstrie, Clackmannanshire, in feu from the family of Argyle, and was ancestor of the earls of Stirling. His posterity took the surname of Alexander from his Christian name. He had a son, Thomas, 2d baron of Menstrie, who is mentioned as an arbiter in a dispute between the abbot of Cambuskenneth and Sir David Bruce of Clackmannan, 6th March 1505. Thomas' son, Andrew, 3d baron, was father of Alexander, Alexander, 4th baron, who had a son, Andrew, 5th baron. This gentleman was father of another Alexander Alexander, 6th baron of Menstrie, who died in 1594, leaving an only son, Sir William Alexander, 7th baron of Menstrie and first earl of Stirling, a Memoir of whom is subjoined in larger type.

Origin: ANDERSON, a surname meaning literally the son of Andrew, but as held by families of Lowland origin, denoting more properly a son of St. Andrew, that is, a native Scotsman, as indicated by the Cross of St. Andrew, the patron saint of Scotland, in their shield. The Mid Lothian Andersons, to one branch of which belongs the family of the author of this work, have for crest a crosslet above the crescent; motto, "Gradatiml" The crest evidently has reference to the crusades.
The Gaelic sept of Anderson are said to be on offshoot of the old potent stem of Clan Anrias, from which spring the Mac Andrews, the Mac Gilanders, and the Gillanderses (Skene, vol. ii. p.228). The chief of the sept is Anderson of Candacraig, Aberdeenshire.

Origin: 'Vanderbeck' comes from the Flemish (and Dutch' Van de beek, which means 'living near the small river'. My grandfather (?1899) told me, that the family 'Vandebeek' moved all to the Frenh speaking part of Belgium, where the people couldn't pronounce it right, so it became 'Vanderbeck'. He told me that he was the first generation, coming back to their roots. Probably, it's true. In the French part of Belgium, you'll find much more 'Vanderbeck', here in the Flemish part, it's all family of us.

Origin: Origins of The Surname ZANDERIGO
Researched from the Manuscript No. 271 DA RONCA. Library of History Cadorina di Vigo Di Cadore 2003 Italy. Translated from Italian to English this day 5 Nov. 2000
The evolution began in 1440 in Comelico Superiore Northern Italy (known as the Dolomites) with a certain gentlemen, surname of ODORICO - ODORICO was later called RIGO for short. One of RIGO's sons was named GIOVANNI shortened to Vanni and later was known as ZANNNI) and again shortened to ZAN - The father RIGO died in 1440.
ZAN son of RIGO at that time lived in Casamazzagno and died 1441 -
"ZAN" (short for Giovanni ) "DE" (son of) "RIGO"
So "GIOVANNI DE ODORICO" became ZAN-DE-RIGO.
In these records It is noted that ZAN-DE-RIGO had a son BORTOLO ZANDERIGO living in Caxamazzagno Comelico Superiore -He died 19th October 1461.
----------------------
The origins of the name CASAMAZZAGNO
ONE of the earliest known family established in Casamazzagno in the year 1213 was a Signor MAZZIN - also known as Mazzagno - he was for many years the village elder - his house was refered to as the house of Mazzagno or Casa di Mazzagno - CASAMAZZAGNO -- Research from records in Cadore "The lost village of Cadore:"
How did 'Zanderigo' become 'Zanderigo_Iona' ?
Surnames of Comelico Superiore:
The first official recording of Surnames in Comelico Superiore northern Italy go back to the 14th Century. During this period many of the villagers had the same surname and for this period names i.e. ZANDERIGO were sufficient to distinguish without difficulty the various families of the village. In these times infant mortality and early deaths were common and village growth was slow - In time the same name families increased in numbers the families grew more difficult to distinguish one from the others Thus began the custom where, to the SON's name was added either the place of birth or name of an ancestor as a nickname. IE: ZANDERIGO_Iona - This custom was continued from father to son more often than not and in time was recognised as legal and binding when signing important documents such as wills, sale and purchasing agreements, testimonies etc ***** Around 1870 when Comunes (councils) began to establish Formal Registry Offices these nicknames (Soprannome) were legally recorded against their surnames. - Some Examples of nick-names all of which are genealogically related .
Zanderigo_Iona * Zanderigo_Rosolo * Zanderigo_Macarino * Zanderigo_Conte
Zanderigo_Fune' * Zanderigo_Cantarella * Zanderigo_Simon * Zanderigo_Tarala
