Astridge Family History

Astridge Surname Meaning

Probably from one or more minor place-names called Ashridge (Middle English ashe + rigge or rugge ‘ash-tree ridge’). The Berks Wilts and Hants surname is perhaps either from Ashridge(wood) in Wokingham (Berks) formerly the name of an administrative hundred (Assherugge 1299) or from a now lost locality in Ramsbury (Wilts) called Asshrigge in 133.

Astridge is a post-medieval dialect pronunciation with /str/ for /ʃr/. The motivation for the late 18th-century change to Ostridge also spelled Austridge is unknown but it appears to be a well attested family tradition.
