The mighty Anglo-Saxon tribes who once powerfully ruled all of Britain originally bestowed the proud and noble English surname of Stern upon a person who was regarded to be uncompromising, austere, severe, and strict. Earliest records of this widely distinguished surname are to be found in Buckinghamshire, where they held a family seat as Lords of the Manor of Grendon. No family motto is noted.
