Member Since: April 2005 Posts: 388 Send Message	I've tried googling, and all the sites mentioned on here. I want to find out what the name Colquitt means. I know there was a concentration of colquitts around the liverpool area, but it doesn't sound particularly english to me. Can anyone help please? Many thanks Mandy XX
