Anyone know the ancestry of this surname? My relative namely Marcia Mignon b.1898, but place unknown.

Many thanks....

Various results via a google search.

Appears to be of French origin but also shows the spread over various census years in different countries.

One result shows the worldwide distribution of the surname.

Where have you found the name Marcia Mignon, not seeing that name in UK census or bmd records
