Nick,
You are correct, it is generally thought that our name is a variation on Terry. Perhaps I should have mentioned that in my previous post. I have always read that Terry is originally a Kent name, though I have never seen anything to prove that claim. I'd be interested in knowing any information, or family stories, you might have on the name since my ancestors at one time lived in London as well. I've posted my request here before but have never had any replies from England.
