Wikipedia
Scantlebury
Scantlebury is an English surname originating from the West Country, and most likely from Devon and Cornwall. The family included builders, coastguards, farmers, labourers, mariners, seamen, servants and public school boys, tailors.The Oxford Dictionary of Surnames gives the origin of Scantlebury as: "English (West Country) of unknown origin perhaps a habitation name from Kentisbury or Kentisbeare both found in Devon with an added "S". Both villages can be found in the Domesday Book. Kentisbury in South Devon near Cullompton is spelt Chentesberie in the Domesday Book, Kentelesbere in 1240 and Kentesbyire in 1252 in Fleet Fines. Kentisbury in North Devon spelt Chentesberie in the Domesday Book Kentelesberi in 1260 and Kentelesberi in 1275."Another plausible theory is that Skentel is a Cornish word meaning "Craftsman", and bery/bury is an old English word for house/hamlet, so Skentelbery/Scantlebury could translate in simple Old English to a "Thatcher".
