replied on: 4/21/2005 1:58:25 PM and i've just found this: Of Boernician origins, Ayscough is the name of an old established Cumb. family descended from Sir Hugh Askew, who received the lands of the convent of Seaton, during the dissolution of the monasteries in 1542. (1) Aske, Ascough, Anscough , Ainscow - Local, 'of Aiskew', a township in the parish of Bedale, co. York; v.Askey. ' Anne Askew ' (1521-46), protesting, martyr, was the second daughter of Sir William Askew, or Ayscough, knight, who is generally stated to be of Kelsey, in Lincolnshire,; Dict. Nat. Biog. (v.Askew). As shown above, the orginal form was Aiskew or Ayscough. This by an intrusive n became, in Lancashire, Ainscough and Ainscow. But Askew is the generally adopted form. It was natural that the surname should cross the border from Yorkshire to Lancashire. 1545. John Aiscoughe and Grisella Tuke; Marriage Lic. (Faculty office), p.y 1553.
