The Cranford Family

     

 

                                     

Name Origin: England, Scotland

The history of the Cranford Family goes back to the ancient Anglo-Saxon culture of Britain.  It is derived from the family living in the parish of Cranfield, in the county of Bedford.

Spelling variations of this family name include: Cranfield, Cranefield and others.

First found in Bedfordshire where they were seated from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A. D. 

                                       

The Cranford branch of the family connects to the Loftin branch when Laura W. Cranford married William Alexander Loftin.
