http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Unknown-137605 Everingham is an ancien t English surname. It is locational and originates from the village o f Everingham in the East Riding of the county of Yorkshire. This villa ge is first recorded as early as the year 972 a.d. in the famous Anglo -Saxon Chronicles. The name means"The place of the Eofor people", a lo cal tribe of some significance. Locational surnames were originally gi ven either to the lord of the manor and his descendants, or to forme r villagers, who for whatever reason, left their original homes and mo ved elsewhere. One of the easiest ways to identify a stranger was to c all him or ocassionally her, by the name of their former home. Spellin g being at best problematical, and local dialects very thick, often le ad to the development of'sounds like'spellings. In this case the firs t recording is far from Everingham, Adam de Everingham being recorde d in the Hundred Rolls of the city of Nottingham in the year 1273, alt hough another Adam Everingham is recorded in the village of Laxton, al so East Yorkshire in 1334, when his daughter Margaret, was christene d there.
