Guest guest Posted April 16, 2003 Report Share Posted April 16, 2003 It's Old English for thorn town, n the Red n, Thanks for the history/language info. Very interesting. Well, I guess I wasn't so far off base, after all! And to think Colorado could have been named Rojo instead!!! Hmmmm, wonder what my maiden name means? Thornton--tons of thorns? I always thought it was because PawPaw had tons of thorn trees in his yard---never occurred to me at the time that he was the one who planted them. LOL Keep us straightened out, girl!
