1: Aurick Redmark -New Name (NP)

Spelling (Aurick Redmark) most important.

Redmark - constructed English place name. One of the meanings in the MED s.v. mark(e) (n. 1) is a land, region or territory. ( https://oscar.sca.org/s.php?u=976 [ quod.lib.umich.edu ] ). That makes it a generic toponym.

Juliana de Luna's "Compound Placenames in English" (http://medievalscotland.org/jes/EnglishCompoundPlacenames/) gives evidence of the pattern of Family Name + Generic Toponym for place names, including Fygmershe and Ballardes Wood.

Red is an English family name/surname found in Bardsley s.n. Read dated to the 1st year of the reign of Edward III or 1327.

Therefore, Redmark is a constructed English place name for a territory or land belonging to a family surnamed Red.

SENA Appendix A supports the use of unmarked locatives in Middle/Early Modern English.
