Assemane meaning | Last name Assemane origin

Assemane is variation of the Ashmead. Localities unknown.

The variant form of Ashman. In Anglo-Saxon, poetry escor ash is constantly used in the sense of spear, because the staff of a spear was usually made of that wood. So the Latin ferrum signifies both iron and sword. Ashman is therefore the equivalent of spearman. Its forms in the Hundred Rolls are Asscheman, Aschman, and Ashman; and in Domesday Assemannus.
