From Latin TABERNA (hut, shed > shop, inn, wineshop, tavern) > Brythonic

It
has been suggested that Latin TABERNA is a dissimulated form of TRABERNA, and
if so it would be a derivative of TRABS (= beam, piece of timber). TRABS is
possibly related to Welsh TREF (= farm; town), and in the Germanic languages
German DORF (= village), and English THORP(E) (found in English place names; =
village).

summoned for using obscene language in Tramroad-side, Penydarren. — P. C.
Wood gave evidence. Complaint was made to him and he heard her applying

have you summoned my wife for?” He then went on to allude to certain women as

Miggan, were also summoned for assaulting Mrs. Lloyd. Margaret Pendry and
another woman gave evidence for complainant. Defendant did not strike her,
but spat in her face. Mrs. Shepherd gave evidence for the defendant. For

probably from Oxford University slang TUFT for a nobleman. The tuft was a gold

The initial H, which could be either for a

presumably to be read as ‘Griff Aitsh’, if not as English ‘Eitsh’ or ‘Heitsh’.

Tonna [ə ˡtɔna] (-)

preferably spelt in the standard form. The name means “the grasslands” (ton =
grassland).
torth [tɔrθ] (nf) loaf (= torth [tɔrθ])
tortha [ˡtɔrθa] (pl) loaves
(= torthau [ˡtɔrθaɪ])

towlu [ˡtoulɪ] (v) 1/ throw (= taflu [ˡtavlɪ]) 2/ hint (= lledawgrymu [ɬɛdauˡgrəmɪ])
towlu’ch (h)unan go to the trouble (of doing something) (‘throw
yourself’)

Welsh. And in the South the diphthong ‘aw’ [au] can become ‘ow’ [ou]. Thus
TAFLU > TAWLU > TOWLU (here spelt as TOWLI]
Also tawlu
town In grandiose names in English for
streets of worker’s housing built by colliery companies.
Some
(most?) of these names were translated into Welsh by their Welsh-speaking
inhabitants, and have survived as alternatives to the ‘offical’ English name.
The first element of such ‘town’ names was often the name of a coalowner. Cf.
-ville used also in grandiose names.

Trealaw [tre·ˡa·laʊ] (nf) village name (= Trealaw [tre·ˡa·laʊ]). Named after David Williams “Alaw Goch” 1809 – 1863., bard
and entrepreneur, from ynysowen in Bro Morgannwg / Vale of Glamorgan
Also apparently Trealo [tre·ˡa·lɔ].
tre [tre:] (nf) 1/ house, home 2/ town (= tref [tre:v])
Welsh TREF is possibly related to Lithuanian TROBÁ (= house) and in the
Germanic languages German DORF (= village), English THORP(E) (in place names, =
village).
Treárn [tre·ˡarn] (-) forename and
surname (= Trahaearn [tra·ˡhəɪarn]).
ORIGIN: Trahaearn is (TRA = (prefix) very, extremely, most, exceedingly) +
(HAEARN = iron). In Gwentian, the triphthong AEA is reduced to the diphthong
AE, hence haearn > haern. Another instance is gaeaf / gaef (= winter).
The personal name has been misunderstood as a place name (probably because the
first vowel might be reduced to schwa – hence TRYHAEARN – and this was spelt as
if a place name beginning with TREF / TRE (a homestead, a farmstead, a
settlement).
The standard Welsh spelling for this local form is Treharn (or more accurately
Trehárn, to indicate the unusual accentuation). In Gwentian, the [h] is lost,
and thus we have Treárn. It has been ‘Englished’ by adding a final ‘e’ –
Treharne.
A note on genealogy.com (June 12, 2001 at 12:59:54) gives an interesting
example of the name:
Trearn Trearn was born 8 July 1820 at Merthyr Tydfill, Glamorgan, Wales. He and
his wife Elizabeth Arthur (married November 23, 1840 at the Parish Church of
Aberdare, Wales) came to the U.S. Their ship arrived 17 July 1841.Once in the
U.S. Trearn changed his name to Treharne Jones Sr. Treharne and Elizabeth died
in Lucas County, Iowa and is buried there as well. I would like to find out of
Treharne or Elizabeth had any brothers or sisters. I’m also looking for more
information on Treharne’s father John Treharne. Elizabeth’s father was Thomas
Arthur and was a mason but I have no further information.
Treharne and Elizabeth had 8 children.They are: Anna (1846-1936), John T.
(1849-1936), Thomas J. (1851-1927), Elizabeth (1853-1921), Treharne Jr.
(1858-1891), Jennett (1860-1936), William Ellsworth (1862-1931), and David
Lincoln (1865-1935).
I am looking for information on any of these people and their
ancestors/descendants.
http://www.genealogy.com/forum/regional/countries/topics/wales/5805/
(Interestingly, in the above account, we see a traditional family forename used
with a surname that had originally been a patronymic ending up in a double
name; other examples abound in Wales, such as Morgan Morgan, Llewellyn
Llewellyn, Howell Howell, Leyshon Leyshon, etc; in a patronymic system it is
unlikely (though not impossible) for such names as Morgan ab Morgan, Llywelyn
ab Llywelyn, Hywel ab Hywel, Lleision ab Lleision. It is at least the
grandfather’s name which is being passed on (hence Morgan ab Gwilym ab Morgan,
for example). Treran Trearn Englished his name by using ‘Treharne’ and then
falling back on the traditional Welsh patronymic mmaner of naming, apparently
usd his father’s forename John as his surname, but in the form Jones.)
(Other spellings: Trahaearn,
Trearn, Treharn, Treharne)
Tredecar [trɛˡde·kar] (nf) town name (= Tredegar [trɛˡde·gar])
Transferred name from Tredegar
by Casnewydd / Newport.
Also in the clipped form Decar [ˡde·kar].
The name of the town is a
shortened form of ‘Tredegar Iron Works’, i.e. the Iron Works on land belonging
to the Tredegar Estate by Casnewydd / Newport.
