There are several possible origins for this name and variations of it. It could mean 'church sexton', 'furrier' or 'cherry picker'. It's a surname that has it's origins in a profession.
The medieval Church levied a payment called circ-sceat in Old English, now called church-scot, which is technically a type of rent, not a tax, that went towards the upkeep of the priest. The Church also required a tenth of all produce or income on certain products - this was called a tithe (Old English teogoþa, a tenth).In addition, it was expected that anyone being married or having a baptism or funeral service would donate a small sum to the altar - in reality this was a payment to the priest. In England this donation could be a single silver penny.
