Origin of the Surnames

Hargrave
The Hargrave Surname has several possible origins;
● Either from a Saxon occupation. The provider or commissary of an army, from Here or Har, an army, and grave, a steward or disposer.
● Or based on a place-name is derived from the Old English elements har, which meant "hare" or "on the border," and graf or græfe, which meant "grove." The place-name as a whole meant "grove filled with rabbits" or "grove on a border."
Early Origins of the Hargrave family
The name Hargrave was first found in Cheshire at Hargrave, which dates back to the Domesday Book of 1086 where it was listed as Haregrave. The Domesday Book also lists Haragrauna in Suffolk and Haregrave in Northamptonshire.
The first record of the family was Geoffrey de Haregrave who was listed in the Pipe Rolls of Derbyshire in 1188. A few years later, in the Hundredorum Rolls of 1273, John de Haregrave was listed as holding lands in Buckinghamshire at that time. Later again, in East Cheshire in 1296, two records were found: William de Haregreve; and Richard de Haregreve. "The Hargreaves of Lancashire probably spring from Hargrave, Cheshire." The Subsidy Rolls of Lancashire listed Henry de Hargreve in 1332. This latter source notes that Hargreave Hall was located in Cheshire, but we can find no record of it today.

Busby
The busby surname origins could be;
● Scottish history reveals Busby was first used as a surname by the Strathclyde-Briton people. It was a name for someone who lived in East Renfrewshire at Busby, a village "partly in the parish of East Kilbride, Middle ward of the county of Lanark."
.
● Alternatively the name could have been derived from Great Busby in Yorkshire which dates back to the Domesday Book of 1086 and was listed as Buschebi. In either case, this place name is most likely derived from the Norman buki, meaning "bush" or "shrub."
