Colverson Family History

Apparently ‘son of someone surnamed Culver’. This type of formation is found in NW England but is rare or absent elsewhere.

Culverson and Culver both occur in the 17th-century parish registers of Faversham (Kent), so it is possible that Culverson is a late development of Culver, which is a surname with a long history in Kent.

Compare perhaps the common use of excrescent -s.
