Authorities agree that the Scottish surname Gemmill or (iemmell is of Danish or Scandinavian origin, being a form of the Danish word gammel, Anglo-Saxon gamel, Old Norse gantaU, all signifying old or ancient} From history we learn that hosts of Danish rovers in- vaded England in the eighth and ninth centuries, and that they made extensive settlements in the northern half of En- gland. In the course of time a fusion of the existing peoples and their languages took place, and when surnames were adoDtod in England, about the time of the Norman Conquest, circumstances pointing to a Danish descent probably led to tlie adoption of the Danish word gammel, Anglo-Saxon gamel, first as a nick-name and eventually as a surname.- In Domes'day Book (A. D. 1080 to 1086) there is men- tion of several Anglo-Saxon thanes or tenants-in-chief and under-tenants of land bearing the name of Gamel, chief among whom was Gamel, the owner of several manors in Yorkshire and Staffordshire.^ The frequent occurrence of the names Gamel, Gammell, Gemel, Gamol and Gamul in the old English records * of the period shows that, shortly after the Norman Conquest, Gamel with variations in spelling was common in England. 1.

Traces of the name Gamel, chiefly in connection with the Ecclesiastical establishments ^ are found a century later in that part of Scotland then included in ancient Northum- brio, but it is not until the middle of the thirteenth century that Gernil^ another form of the name Gamel, is for the first time found associated with the ownership of land in Scotland. According to Chalmers,^ the historian, the iiarish of Kirk- michael, Ayrshire, was in former times called Kirkmichael of Qemilstoun—obviously derived from a proprietor or settler of the name of Gemil—the church there being described in Latin charters as " Ecclesia Sancti Michaelis de Gemilstoun." " This church," he adds, *' was granted to the Prior and Canons of Whithorn in Galloway by John de Gemilstoun, the son and heir of John de Gemilstoun, Knight, wliich grant was confirmed to them by Robert I, in May, 1325, and by James IV in 1451." In the accounts of Eymeric de Maccuswell, Sheriff of Dumfries, of date 1264, Joannes de Gemilstoun is mentioned as indebted in a fine of <£15, and in the accounts of John de Twynhame, the King's Purveyor in Galloway, is an entry under date 1329 of a payment of £63 6 8 as part payment of a sum of money granted by the King to Lady Mary, wife of Jojin of Gemilstoun. ^ Joannes de Gemilstoun—probably the Knight above referred to— is mentioned in the Ragman Rolls as one of the Scottish barons who swore fealty to King Edward I at Ber- wick in 1296.'^ 1.

The diiSculties attending a first attempt at present- ing so very full a List of the Inhabitants of a whole County, are pleaded in excuse of any inaccuracies that may be discovered. The indication of the Voters, though attempted care- fully, had better, perhaps, in the present edition have been omitted, as the Official Registers from which they are taken have never since the passing of the Reform Bill been purged of " dead," and "absent"; while at the date when consulted, this year's Electors had not been added. Prefixed to the Directory are Fifty-eight pages of County Statistics, Interest Tables, and other informa- tion valuable for reference; and Seventy pages of Advertisements are annexed.
