Purely based upon conjecture, it is widely believed that the proud and noble English surname of Highsmith, a compound name originating in the Old English language, refers to either a tall metal worker or a metal worker who lived or worked up on high ground. Early eminent Highsmith ancestors distinguished themselves by holding a family seat at Buckinghamshire.
