The
Washington
Family |
|
|
|
Name Origin: ENGLISH |
The origin of the Washington surname is England. |
|
The name was originally spelled as Wessyngton. De Wessyngton is thought to be of Anglo-Saxon origins and existed
in the British Isles prior to the Norman Conquest in 1066. The
village of Wassengtone is mentioned in the Saxon charter by King
Edgar in 973. The name of this village derives from the
Old English word "wassingatun" meaning a settlement of the
people of Wassa - a personal name meaning "hunt" and "victory". |

In the US, the states with the largest number of Washingtons
reside in Virginia, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas. There are also sizeable
groups in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Missouri,
Arkansas, Tennessee and Florida. |

The Washington family connects to the Lanier family when
Elizabeth Washington married
Sampson Lanier. Sampson
Lanier's granddaughter, Martha, married
John Loftin.
Sampson Lanier Jr. and
George Washington, the 1st President of the United
States, seem to be 4th cousins although his lineage has been reproduced in many
conflicting versions since his death. |
