Does Anyone Know?? I've been wondering for a long time?

Question

Does any body know the origin of the name "Creasie"

(kree-see) I heard that it came from an african slave name, but i'd like to know more. if you could be of any help i'd really appreciate it.

Answer 1

http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/f...

has 56 entries, with the exact spelling box checked. Some could be Black - they are born in the south - but at least half are in the UK.

Some Scots put aside their disdain for the English long enough to go south and earn a pile of money, so the fact someone is born in England doesn't mean she/he isn't a Scot at heart. The answer above me could very well be dead on.

Answer 2

I couldn't find a meaning, but most likely it is Scottish.  There are several with that name in the Scottish census.

Answer 3

i heard it some where tooo i cant remember sry
