Hiorns, originated from the name Hierne, which became Hiorne
and then different variations, even Irons and Iorns
a lot of the variations can be found in the Great Tew church records, Oxfordshire, around 1600s. and in the IGI records-----
these names came under HORNES and the county of Oxfordshire.and surrounding Counties
the name of Hiorns was also miss-spelt as H irons because of the spelling of the metal, my family came from the Deddington area, then Eynsham. Gilbert Ronald
