**Tomson's Family: Origins and Meaning**
The Tomson's family has a pretty interesting history and belongs to a widespread type of Anglo-Scottish surnames. Separate immigrants from British islands began to arrive in Russia at the end of the 16th century. In addition to English merchants, hired soldiers from Scotland came running to Flanders, who fled from their homeland for religious or any other reasons. Later, mainly in the 19th century, a colony of British immigrants was replenished with specialists in various fields, managers, merchants from all over Great Britain. The Tomson family name originates from the male name Thomas, which is a Greek form of the Arabic name Teoma, which means "twin, double." The name is formed from the name's short form - Tom. The "-son" affix is characteristic of Romano-Germanic surnames and translates into Russian as "son". The "-s" suffix indicates the plural form. However, it is not excluded that this modifier is evidence that the Tomson surname has developed in the Baltic states. A number of ancient Russian clans claim Western European origins, based on fantastic genealogies, which were especially in vogue in the 17th century and are still referred to by some insufficiently critical authors. Nevertheless, for some Anglo-Scottish origin surnames, their etymology is established with considerable authenticity.
**History of the Family**
Like many other Anglo-Shtotlanskogo surnames have their history in England and the old name of one of the senior members of this family Tomson, likely to be English, comes out with one of his names Sexton. Its name contains an orthographic error. Therefore, from the second generation of ancestors, the biblical theme of sin, mating, infidelity and hatred of home comes into play, reflected in its meaning "Sin's Brother". In a more recent version, it became Tomson. Another interesting version of the origin of the surname Tomsons is a translation from Latin. This version also gives its version (the fourth, fifth or even sixth generation) of Tomson
