Teunis Middagh [Parents] was born about 1600.
Middagh is probably one of the very ancient names originating in or amongthe people of DACIA, prolific, warlike Germanic people who lived in theCarpathian Mountains, and waged war against the Romans, 10 B.C. This namemay trace its root to Dagh-estan, from Persian Dagh, "mountain", andStan, "country", or it may be traced to the Hebrew Dag, "fish", preservedin the Phoenician fish-god Dagon, or it may have originated in theTeutonic Tag or Dag, meanng "day"...
We believe he name Middagh is an Hollandish name meaning "Midday".Middaugh, Middah, Middaegh, Meddagh, Madaugh, Meddaugh, Medough, Meddaghare some of the variations of record, but as the initial letter, "M"cannot be misprinted nor the general sound of the name mispronounced, thename is not changed materially and cannot confuse the researcher.
