Can someone please tell me the origin/meaning of my last name? i cant find it..?

Question

its thornbury

Answer 1

It is a surname probably originating from a place name, Thornbury, Gloucestershire, England.

There are probably multiple family origins for this surname, as many families could have come from such a Thorn Town. There are more than a dozen English towns with the word "thorn" in them, including Thornage, Thorncliff, Thornbury and Thornborough (both meaning "the burgh of Thorn")

Answer 2

Variation of Thornberry.

Thornberry

English: habitational name from Thornborough in North Yorkshire (Thornebergh in 12th-century records) or Thornbrough in Northumberland and North Yorkshire (T(h)orneburg in 13th-century records). The former is probably so named from Old English þorn ‘thorn bush’ + beorg ‘hill’; the latter from þorn + burh ‘fort’. Other possible though less likely sources are Thornbury in Devon, Gloucestershire, or Herefordshire, which are all named from Old English þorn + byrig, dative of burh ‘fortified place’.
