Surnames

In Germany, the term "Spurk" for the juniper plant can be found in Old High German glosses mainly from the 10th century on from the name forms developed by Spohra / Spurcha . The family name Jan Spurks is likely to be derived from the historic monastery courtyard "Auf dem Spurk" of the former Premonstratensian Abbey of Wadgassen , which is located a few kilometers from Jan Spurk's birthplace.
