Baskerville is an English surname of Anglo-Norman origin. It is believed to have been used by Normans from Boscherville (Saint-Martin-de-Boscherville), many of whom settled along the English-Welsh border. Etymologically the name is a combination of archaic Anglo-Norman French ''boschet'' (a little bush) and ''ville'' (village). At the time of the British Census of 1881,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Baskerville Surname Meaning and Distribution ) Retrieved 23 January 2014〕 its relative frequency was highest in Herefordshire (16.2 times the British average), followed by Cheshire, Devon, Radnorshire, Oxfordshire, Brecknockshire, Cornwall, Wigtownshire, Carmarthenshire and Staffordshire.
