Truax Last Name History & Origin

Add

History

All Americans with this name can trace their lineage back to Philippe Du Trieux, a Walloon huguenot, who arrived in New Amsterdam in 1623. Born in Roubaix, France, Philippe fled his homeland due to religious prosecution and mass killings, as he was protestant and the Spanish nobility, which held control over the area he and his family lived, were very catholic and the nobility dubbed huguenots “traitors to God.” Philippe Du Trieux also had one of the very first, maybe even the first houses, on Beaver Street in New Amsterdam (which later became NYC).

Name Origin

Americanized version of french “Du Trieux” meaning place of three waters.
