MATES Family History
This unusual surname, also recorded as Mates, Matt, and Matts, is a nickname from the medieval period. It is an affectionate or nickname style of 'Matthew', a name introduced into England at the time of the Norman Conquest of 1066. In fact such was the popularity of 'Matthew', at one time it was fourth behind William, John and Richard, that a whole series of quite distinct surnames originated from it. These include Matthewman, Matthewson, Mathes, Mattys, Mathieson (Scottish), Mattingson, and Mattimoe.Select Audience
