French and Walloon: nickname for a red-haired man, from a diminutive of Old French ro(u)s ‘red’ (see Roux and Leroux ). This surname is also found in the Flemish part of Belgium, in Haiti, and in South Africa. Compare Rosseau and Russeau .
History: This surname is listed in the (US) National Huguenot Society's register of qualified Huguenot ancestors. The Huguenot ancestor was Théodore de Rousseau, who arrived with his son Hillaire at Manakin, VA, in the early 1700s. — The South African bearers of the surname Rousseau trace their origin to Pierre Rousseau from Mer, France, who arrived in the Dutch Cape Colony in 1688. He is recognized as a French Huguenot ancestor by the Huguenot Society of South Africa. However, his descendants mainly bear the altered form of the name, Rossouw.
