Hascude meaning | Last name Hascude origin

Hascude is the variant of Hesketh. Musard Ascuit, Hascoit, or Hasculfus, appears in Domesday as a capital tenant in the counties of Derby, Bucks, Oxford, Warwick, &c. Camden, speaking of the name Askew, erroneously says, that it comes from Ascouth, and that "from the old Christian name Aiscuith, which in Latin was Hasculphus and Hastulphus, that is, Speedy-Help." The baronet's family claim to have been possessed of Hesketh, county of Lancaster, from the Conquest, and the pedigree is deduced without hiatus from Rich. de Haskayth in the XIII century.
