Appendix BSURNAMESIN THEWALDENSIAN VALLEYS

SURNAMES OF THE WALDENSIAN VALLEYSBased largely on Osvaldo Coisson, I Nomi di Famiglia delle Valli Valdesi [Torre Pellice, 1975]. You should photocopy each Coissonarticle about a surname on your pedigree so you know they variations in the spelling of the name before you search other records andin which villages you should begin searching. Surnames mentioned only in early medieval records are not included on this list. NOTE:In parish and notarial records, names may appear in either French or Italian forms and with many variations in spelling.In case you need to make mail requests for photocopies of pages pertaining to your surnames, Coisson page numbers are indicated. Anumber by a name means that surname is the first surname on that page number; all surnames until the next page number also occuron that same page. An asterisk (*) indicates that the surname continues to the next page. A double asterisk (**) means the name occursin the notarial records but not in Coisson. Numbers in parentheses indicate the page for names out of normal alphabetical order.Abonel - 11AchardAghitAgiaton/AguitonAgli’Agnes/De AguesAillard - 12AimarAimonAlbamoAlbarea/ArbareaAlbarin/ArbarinAlbergeAlbericoAlberti - 13AlbertinAllaisAllamburgoAllardAllaudAllemandi*Allesan - 14Allier/AllietAllio/Alliaud*Aloerio/Alouer - 15AlloisAmatAmberti*Amfoux/Anfoso - 16AmstettoAnastateAndreon/AdrionAngrogneAnthouardAppia*Arbaud/Harbaud - 17ArcherArcienaArduinArmand - 18Armand-HugonArmingeonArnaud* - 19Arnone - 20Arnoul*Arnoulet - 21Artero/ArtierArtus/DartusioAsariAssoul -22AudetAurelioAutreAvienneAvondetAyasseAyassotBalce(t) - 23Balma/BalmeBalmas*Barac - 24BaralBarberiBaretBaridon*Barile - 25BarinBarolinBaroloBarotBartol(o)mioBartulinBarusBastia/Bastie*Bastian - 26BaudBauderonBayle/BaileBeaudoinBeauregardBec*Bein/Ben - 27BeliardBellegardeBellinBellionBellonBellonat*Benech - 28BenedettoBerardBergatBergeBergerBergogni - 29BergoinBermondBernardBernatonBerruBert*Bertalmio - 30BertalotBertetBertin*Bertin-MaghitBertin-PasselBertin-VerneBertinat - 31BertochBertoleBertolinBertolotto - 32Bertone/BretonBertotBertrandBescheisBesson*Beux/Bosio - 33Bianciotto (Blanchot)Bianci/BlancBieynettoBillonBillioneBillour - 34BlanchetBlanchonBleynatBochiaBodet -35BodoiraBoer/BoveroBoiratBoisBoissatBonBonin*Bonjour - 36BonnetBorel - 37BoscBosio*Botto - 38BoucBouchardBoudrandiBouisseBoulardBounous - 39BountempBouquetBourcetBourgBourlotBourne/Borno*Bourque - 40Bout/BontBouvier/BoveroBraidaBres*Bresson - 41BreuzaBrianza
