We had a few named Lundstrum around the area. Many Anglicised their names. A local family was named Campos. The “s” was put on to hide the Spanish origins.

Names ending in “berg”, would have the g turned to a “t”. So many names with “bert” at the end may have been originally German or Scandinavian. Many had the “berg” removed. Greenberg became Green. Same with “stein”. Burnstein became Burns, or Bernstein Became Berns. Etc, etc.
