AZE surname
The Aze surname has been around in the UK since 1196 and probably earlier, with Sir Geoffrey Aze making sure he was mentioned in the Sussex County Rolls for his charitable giving. These days there are not many Azes around – something like 60 in the UK, all of whom can trace their ancestors to two families that were living in Barnstaple, Devon in the mid 1800s.
The rarity of the name makes it a gift to people researching their ancestry or doing a family tree. This wiki is the result of a branch of the 21st century Azes sharing some of what we know about our branch of Aze genealogy. If you recognise your forebears in the information here, or you have further information to add, please do get in touch. ku.gro.eza@neg

Azes Lane, Barnstaple
All of the Azes living in the UK today derive from two families living in Barnstaple in Devon in the mid-1800s. They even had a street named after them, although most of it has since been demolished as part of a slum clearance programme. Just a bit of Azes lane remains, about 20 metres long and ending at a car park.
