The March surname derives from the Medieval English or Olde English " marche " meaning a boundary and was originally given as a topographic name to a dweller by a boundary, especially the border between two territories for example the Marches between England and Wales. In some cases the name may be locational from March in Cambridgeshire. John March in Sware was recorded in the Commissary Record of Lanarkshire, Scotland in 1624.
