3 Introduction Mr. O. P. Clarke, acting commissioner for the United States Department of the Interior, must have shaken his head in utter disbelief. It was Wednesday, April 20th, 1881 as he took his pen in hand, and addressed himself to the postmaster in Mount Pleasant, Spotsylvania County, Virginia: Sir, About the year 1840, Susan Ethirington, or Eatherton, or Edenton, widow of John Etherington, a soldier of the Revolutionary War, applied from your county for pension and filed in evidence a copy of the New Testament, which it is now desired to return. Some of her children were named John, Henry, James, Benjamin, and Francis. If you can do without inconvenience, will you favor this office with the names and post office addresses of some of the descendants of the above pensioner? Please return this letter with your reply. Very respectfully, O. P. Clarke Acting Commissioner One family, one page, 5 spellings of the name. It is no wonder that Mr. Clarke struggled with this. So did the family. And the multitude of spellings over the years shows just how hard it is to capture the sound of this name as it is spoken by its bearers. The documents and comments in this report trace the attempts by family and scholars alike to understand the names Ethington. It is so difficult even today, that the three or four syllables morph into variations never dreamed of by the bearers. The first syllable could be anywhere from a strong E sound as in beet, to a soft A sound as in bath, or it could have been anywhere in between, a sound approximated by the unusual letter Æ. The second syllable was no less difficult. Some retain the hard D of a tongue tap on the upper pallet, while others soften that same written D into a th sound with the tongue placed between the teeth. If the name originates in the Adder River valley of Scotland as we now think, the er sound survives in the spoken Etherington. But with time, the energy-consuming er sound drops out, the name is reduced from four syllables to three, and we end up with Addington, Ethington and Edington.

4 And on and on. The etymology of the name remains hidden, and it continues to this day to morph into forms completely unexpected. Look at the mail you receive today. My favorite so far is Effington engraved forever on the headstone of my grandfather s first wife. My, how they must have struggled with that one. This report is an attempt to organize the body of research done over the years on the source of the family and of the name. It is not definitive. There is no one answer. And there is no agreement as to source or origin. Even the one source that is earliest and quoted most often Carr s Coldingham Prior of 1836, after stating that Edrington derived its name from its contiguity to the river Whitadder, does not further explain how he associates the names. Actually, we do have the answer. It came from a most unlikely source, but with complete confidence. I was sitting in a barber s chair in the San Francisco California International Airport. The barber had an interesting accent, and I inquired where he was from. He replied that he came from Puerto Rico, and he noted that I too had an accent and he could tell exactly where I came from. Curiously, I asked where he thought that would be. With complete assurance, he said: You come from Scotland. I cut hair on people from all over the world in this place, and I can tell from the color and texture of your hair that you are Scottish. There is no doubt about it! So there you have it. Perhaps we will never know the full story of our family name. But hopefully, with time, effort, and studies such as this, we will come to a better understanding of just who we are. And if you are still unsure, just ask your barber. Harold D. Ethington March, 2004 Sandy, Utah, USA The Ethington Family Organization Page 4

9 Lands of Edrington Comments by Greg Lauder-Frost on The Lands of Edrington Berwickshire, Scotland March, 2004 There are two distinct areas in the Duns-Berwick area identified with the Ethington family names. The first is the area called Edrington, which lies along the Scottish/English border about 3.6 miles west from Berwick along the Duns (A6105) Road. The area has been controlled since early times by the Lauder family, and seems to have generated few if any persons who assumed the surname Edrington or its variants from it. The second area lies another 3 miles to the west, along the Whiteadder river, and just south of the town of Chirnside. This area was originally called Iddington, and the name eventually came to be known as Edington. This area was controlled by thethomas Edingtoun family (also spelled Ethingtoun) from the 1400 s down to 1593 when Thomas grandson Thomas sold it to the Ramsay family. A few years later, the Ramsays sold the land to the Lauder family. Parish records show Edingtoun persons in the area in the late 1600 s up through the 1800 s. Greg Lauder-Frost s comments about this area follow. - HDE The original Edrington estate was south of the Berwick to Duns road, for a start. It was not big by American or Australian standards. Its main wealth came from its mill which was in operation until after the last world war. I shall see if I can find the acreage of the farms. Although many Lauder owners were described in the old records as "Lord of Edrington" it was not a feudal barony, to the best of my knowledge, although until the mid-17th century it was held directly from the Crown. Thereafter it was incorporated into the barony of Coldingham. Today's Edrington estate includes the Nether Mordington lands, with the exception of Nether Mordington House - now called Edrington House, which, with about 40 acres, was detached from the lands some time ago and sold off. Edrington House is just off [south of] the Berwick to Duns Road. Edrington castle was on the cliff above its mill and across the river from Paxton. I have asked Graham Milne, who owned Edrington House and its Regality until 31st January this year, and now lives at Norham, to let you know some of the boundaries if he has time. He has maps of the estates. Nether Mordington manor house, today's Edrington House, is not near the castle nor Edrington mill but up near the A6105 road [north about 1 mile]. Edrington castle [by the mill/iver] was lived in until, we think, circa The Douglases were forfeited because of their involvement in the 1745 rebellion, and as they owned both Nether Mordington and Edrington estates these were both sold. The next owner, who bought both, rebuilt

10 Nether Mordington manor and abandoned Edrington Castle as a residence. He moved to Nether Mordington [1 mile north] and renamed it Edrington House. That is how it acquired that name. The southern boundary [of Edrington] is the Whiteadder river almost to where it meets the Tweed. The Whiteadder is also the western boundary upriver to Clarabad Mill where a small stream leaves the Whitadder and proceeds north, eventually meeting the A6105. That is the eastern boundary. The actual northern boundary of the ancient Edrington lands was, say, halfway between the southern boundary and the A6105. The eastern boundary is now the English border, but, before 1500, the Lauders had lands across that boundary road which were forfeited to the English Crown and I suspect they too formed part of the original Edrington estate. The lands and Regality of Nether Mordington also have the English border road as their eastern boundary. Their western boundary is also the stream I previously mentioned which runs up to and under the A6105 from the Whiteadder. Their southern boundary is obviously the Edrington estate and their northern boundary is about a quarter of a mile north of my house (remember that I live just north of the A6105). They are now conjoined with the Edrington lands and the entire property is called the Edrington estate. Edrington Castle, now a ruin, with the farm cottage and ajoining buildings, stands above its ancient mill. Always has. The mill is on the Whitadder in the bottom portion of the old Edrington lands. From Andrew Lang: "On both sides of the Whitadder are to be seen places of much interest. First, Edrington Castle, on the left bank a few miles [actually about a mile] from the river's mouth, once a place of great strength, now crushed by the doom that has wrecked so many of the old strongholds in this part of the country - it was for ages used as a convenient quarry. Nearly opposite Hutton, a few miles upstream, are the ruins of an old castle at Edington [former Iddington]. It is remarkable the number of names in this district, all beginning with "Ed":- Edrington, Edington, Ednam, Eden, Edrom, Edinshall, all probably taking their origin from Edwin, King of Northumbria, Or does the derivation go still further back, to Odin?" 1 John Scott (History of Berwick) notes that in the accounts of Sir Alexander de Seton, collector of the burgh of Berwick, for 1329, an entry: "allowed to accountants for the fishery of Eidermouth [Eddermouth, today's Whitadder], now in possession of Sir Robert de Lawdre by right of inheritance, 40." The mouth of the Whitadder is just below the Edrington estate in Berwickshire and normally the fishings were attached to those lands. This appears amongst the earliest records of the Lauders at Edrington. 1 Highways and Byways in The Border by Andrew & John Lang (London, 1913, pps: 7-8). The Ethington Family Organization Page 10

11 In A Calendar of Documents Relating to Scotland, (edited by Joseph Bain, vol.iii, Edinburgh, 1887, pps: 218/219) there appears a charter dated circa 1335 which mentions numerous properties in and around Berwick-upon-Tweed which Robert the Bruce had granted to Sir Robert de Louwedere (another spelling in the same charter is Lowedre!) senior, and his son Robert. Berwick having now fallen into the hands of the English, Robert de Lawedre junior is forfeited of the properties in Berwick which are granted by Edward III of England to Adam of Corbridge. [Needless to say these were later reinstated!] On 14th December 1425, in The Great Seal of Scotland (number 29), "The King [formally] confirms to Robert de Lawedre of Edringtoun, knight, Justiciario Scotia [he was Lord Justice of the Lothians at the time], the lands of le Crag, Balgone, the Bass, Easter Pencaitland, Newhall, [etc etc all in East Lothian] and Edringtoun, Simprin, [Berwickshire] for him and his legitimate heirs. Here is an entry from the Exchequer Rolls which actually tells you the size of the Edrington estate in 1519: 2 "At Edinburgh on the 29th April 1519 Robert Lauder of the Bass was granted Sasine of the following: the lands of Edrington with tower, mill, fishings and all pertinents extending to 15 husbandlands [390 acres]; the town and territory of Simprin [390 acres] and the lands of Ladypark with pertinents, all in Berwickshire. the lands of Stenton and Duchry with all dependents and pertinents; the lands of Garvald [held in feu from the Earl of Ross?]; the lower half of The Bass; [upper half held in feu from The Church] the lands of Newhall with tenandry; the lands of Popill sometimes called Lauderslands and Whitelawslands with pertinents; the lands of Wester Spott and Grenedenehede & Mukis with pertinents; the lands of Beil with tower, fortalice, mill &c., the lands of Johnscleuch; the lands of Mersington with Mill [in Berwickshire]; the lands of Pencaitland with pertinents. 2 The Exchequer Rolls of Scotland edited by A.E.J.G.Mackay, M.A.,LL.D., volume XIV, , Edinburgh, 1893, pages The Ethington Family Organization Page 11

(end) 3 Comment by Greg Lauder-Frost: George Black's Surnames of Scotland, for what it is worth as a reliable publication (which often it is not), has no family of Edrington listed. Nor has William Buchanan of Auchmar's book, Ancient Scottish Surnames &c., (Glasgow, 1820). Even British Family Names - Their Origin and Meaning by Rev.Henry Barber,M.D.,F.S.A., (London, 1903), a noted expert, and The Origin of English Surnames by P.H.Reaney (London, 1984 reprint, ) does not mention this surname.

Edinburgh and London 1926 Page 467 Some stream-names not included so far may now be mentioned. Adder of Whitadder and Blackadder in Berwickshire might, in its present form, be equated or compared with Atur, now l Adour, of Gascony, Aturavus, now l Arrous, a tributary of the Loire, Aturia, now Oria, a river of Spain, and the Adour, Adur, of Cornwall and Sussex. In the Life of St. Cuthbert, however, and in Symeon of Durham, it is Edre, which can hardly be other than A.S. ædre, édre, an artery, a vein, fountain, river.

21 Scottish Place Names (Nicolaisen) Scottish Place-Names Their Study and Significance By W.F.H. Nicolaisen B.T. Batsford Ltd. London Page 24 If the g-lessness of the earliest spellings for Edington in Berwickshire (Hadynton 1095 (15 th ), ESC Edintun Melrose Liber) is ignored, these simply confirm the name as containing a first element Ead(d)a or the like which occurs as a personal name in such English identical equivalents as Addington in Berkshire, Kent, Northamptonshire and Surrey. The eleventh and twelfth century spellings for these four names are exclusively g-less, as in the case of the Scottish name under discussion. For this no early spellings are really required although if they did not exist, the interpretation of its first element might be less certain. A clear example of an early name in ington is Edrington (Berwickshire) which must be compared with the other Berwickshire name Edrom, analyzed above, for both contain the rivername Adder as their first element, and are situated on the river of that name. The spelling Ederington of 1330 ER (A.D.) established the e- of the second syllable of the river-name, and the much earlier Hadryngton 1095 ESC (A.D.) provides a glimpse of the sound development of the stem-syllable. The spellings are easily early enough to show Edrington to be the tūn of the settlers on the river Adder, if such proof were necessary. Page 73 [In Scotland] as in England, the connective participle ing- is found only with tūn; and just as tūn is slightly later in Scotland than hām, so names ending in ingtūn belong to a later period than those in ingas and ingaham. Once the numerous non-genuine late adaptations like Abington, Newington, Symington and others have been eliminated, there remains a genuine residue of early material in such Berwickshire names as Edington Hadynton 1095 (15 th ), Hoedentum (15 th ), Edingtonam 1095 (15 th )) farm associated with *Ead(d)a ; Edrington Hadryngton 1095 (15 th ) farm associated with the river Adder ; Mersington (so 1291) farm associated with *Mersa or Mersige ; Page 184 EDRINGTON the ruins of the EDRINGTON CASTLE are on the left bank of the Whiteadder about five miles from BERWICK; EDRINGTON HOUSE is on a small tributary of the same river [Clarabad Creek]. Page 185 both these names (EDROM and EDRINGTON) must have been coined before the distinctive adjectives Black and White became attached to the two tributaries comprising the ADDER river (The Whiteadder and the Blackadder).

22 Chirnside Past and Present (Hunt) CHIRNSIDE PAST AND PRESENT By Erica Hunt Lindsay & Co. Ltd. Edinburgh EH1 1ND Published 1975 (extracts, various pages) Chirnside, or Chirsit as we villagers call it, lies at a height of 444 feet along the ridge of the southernmost slope of the Lammermoors in Berwickshire. The parish consists of 5,570 acres and it has twelve farms. The southern boundary is the Whitadder. It is encircled by the parishes of Coldingham, Foulden, Edrom, and Bonkyl. merse may mean morass or marsh. If, as some say, it means march or boundary it could have been called so only after 1020 when the district was ceded to the Scottish king. Chirnside was of importance as a barony belonging to the powerful Earl of Dunbar who got it from King Edgar, son of Malcolm Canmore. In 1431 Hugh Spence, a kinsman and vassal of the Earl of Dunbar, was granted 104 acres the whole lands of Chirnside but his tenure ended when this tenth Earl took umbrage against King Robert III and joined the Percies at Alnwick. King James V after Flodden passed a law by which every owner of 100 worth of land was compelled to build a keep [a watch tower]. In the days when these were build most of the trees had been cut down for house building and fuel, so communications like beacons would be visible from Herber to Ferney, Old Castles, Broom House, Edrington, Edington, Hutton, Blackadder, Foulden, Nisbet, Wedderburn, Duna, Bonkyl, Billie and Blanrne resounding names for balladry. Towering above them all to the west was Hume and towering above all lesser mortals were the Humes. Agriculture was primitive and unproductive in this marshy district in the olden days. Ignorant of lime and fertilizers, people grew bere, which was miserable barley, for the universally home-brewed ale, and also oats for porridge. The years 1740 and 1807 saw great changes concerning the division of the common lands. The 1740 act decreed that fields must now be fenced in. This was beyond the means of the cottagers so the land went to lairds who could afford to buy. At about 1700 it took a year to plough 104 acres because the cumbersome wooden plough needed eight to ten oxen. In the olden days every household brewed its own ale made from the abundance of bere. As ovens were practically non-existent housewives could not make bread; barley bannocks baked on a griddle were used instead. With kail, the staple ingredient of broth was bere. The husks were removed in knocking stones and there are still many of these and old querns in gardens. Querns were for grinding corn. Twenty were found in the Billie Mire. But according to the regulations you were supposed to take your grain to be ground at the laird s mill for a fee. Chirnside mill was on the Billie Burn near where it flows into the Whitadder. Ninewells mill was on the Whitadder a short distance above Allanton bridge. Edington mill dates from A hundred years ago it was the first mill in Europe to make Rolled Oats. Bell s Oats are famous in many countries. Some oatmeal is still being made by the best method, which is stone grinding, The Ethington Family Organization Page 22

23 Chirnside Past and Present (Hunt) for an old water wheel is still in use, but like the rest of the mill it was badly damaged by the alarming flood in Edington was one of the sixteen mills on the Whitadder. From pagan time people believed in the healing power of Virtue Wells. On quarter-days pilgrimages were made to one which contained iron. This chalybeate well was at Biteabout, in a wood between Edington Mains and Nether Mains or Dodd Hall as this was formerly called. In 1750 there were no bridges across the Whitadder, only ferries and fords. The middle of the 1782 bridge marks the boundary of Chirnside parish. It is of interest that the area of the parish coincides with that of the old barony. The delicate cream sandstone from Edington is of a superior quality suitable for carvings and for outside walls. Many of our houses are a mixture of this and of the red sandstone in the two Chirsit quarries. A serious obstacle in this swampy district, made impenetrable by brushwood and scrub and full of treacherous morasses, was the absence of roads. Horses were the only means of transport. In the reign of Charles II road-making was carried out by the compulsory labour of the peasantry, for each man had to devote six days a year to the work. This was replaced in 1751 by toll gates called turnpikes, where each user who passed had to pay a fee. Lairds and lawyers devised the alignment of parochial roads and the newly enclosed fields were laid out to correspond with them. Markets now sprang up. An important road from Berwick to the country town, Greenlaw, came through Chirnside. Duns replaced Greenlaw as the county town in The oldest recorded school was the one in the Dominie s loan. It was under the auspices of the church and was supported by the three heritors, the lairds of Whitehall, Ninewells and Edington. Chirsit [Chirnside] has had its share of dramas, in one of which figured the debauched young laird of Edington, Sir George Lauder, and his profligate drinking companion, twenty-three year old David Spence, laird of Spence Mains. David, following the fashionable sport of young lairds who were libertines, had seduced a lassie called Agnes. The Kirk Sessions were outraged at what they always termed this heinous sin and they bombarded him with summonses to attend church at specified services to appear on the stool of repentance and pay a fine. [David] treated their threats with contempt, but when he was referred to the jurisdiction of the Presbytery he cocked a snook at them. He made an honest woman of Agnes by marrying her. I conclude his family thought he had married beneath him. On the gravestone her maiden name and date of birth are ignored; she is plain and simple Agnes. But Agnes was determined to rescue her husband from the primrose path and from the influence of the disreputable Lauder. One day in 1699 Lauder rode over to see his friend but he had a chilly reception from Agnes. Though she said David was not at home, he could be seen delving in his garden by the big pear tree. The infuriated Lauder withdrew to the tavern, which was a thatched building close to the horse trough at the Kirk Gate. In high dudgeon he sat down on the Ioupin -on-stane in front of the change house. Presently a callant came by and he said to the lad, Go down to Spence Mains and say to the laird he is wanted here, but dinna say by whom. When David came they had angry words, but evidently reconciled they went into the tavern for a drink. The Ethington Family Organization Page 23

24 Chirnside Past and Present (Hunt) What followed came with unexplained suddenness. On coming out, Lauder pulled out his pistol and shot Spence dead. He hastily collected his gear at Edington and galloped through Foulden village on what happened to be its Fair day. To the crowds out on the road he shouted, I have this day killed the bonniest man in all the Merse. [George s] fate is uncertain for he was never brought to justice. If perhaps he found asylum in Flanders he was dead within a year for his estate was inherited by his brother, a surgeon in the East India Company 4 [See also page 77 this document HDE]. Religious troubles, We are fortunate in that we are country folk for there is a sense of permanence about the soil and the rhythm of the seasons. Yet the past is always mingling with the present and every minute the present becomes the future. One day is with Thee as a thousand and a thousand years as one day. We all have an instinctive wish to be remembered when we are dead for what we were like and for what we did. This gives us the feeling that we ourselves are part of history and that leads us to feel that we are eternal. Erick Hunt 4 Comments by Greg Lauder-Frost ( correspondence with HDE March 2004): I don't necessarily concur with the florid account of George Lauder's activities! Although distantly related, young Sir George was a son of the first Lauder Baronet (by his third wife) and not of The House of Bass. There is no connection here with Edrington. There is a very clear distinction between Edrington, and today's Edingtoun, some miles [west] down the road, and anciently spelt Idingtoun or Iddingtoun. It was only in the 19th century that the transcribers, and lastly the local authorities, started spelling it Edingtoun. I am attaching a brief note on the Edington family that I know little of, and also another on Sir John Lauder and Margaret Ramsay's children, headed by the young Sir George Lauder, whom your writer speaks of as having murdered Mr.Spence. She knows not his fate but the records in Edinburgh show that he jumped into the Tweed and drowned hmself. Mr.Spence was not his only worry, as there was a huge dispute about his inheritace and especially about the destination of his father's inheritable title. Maybe he'd had enough!

28 British Folkways in America Albion s Seed Four British Folkways in America by David Hackett Fischer In his 1989 book Albion s Seed 5, author David Hackett Fischer details four major British migrations to the Americas and their impact on the development of American culture. Each of these four migration waves originated from a specific area of Britain, and the folkways carried by the immigrants from their homeland remain evident today in the customs, mores, speech, mannerisms, and religious attitudes of today s American population. Fischer identifies the origin of the th migration wave as originating in the northern borders of England, and the southern borders of Scotland. This is the period during which our research shows that the immigrant ancestor of the American Ethington family arrived. Fischer goes on to say that his studies show that most of the immigrants from the borders area moved to the frontiers of Virginia, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina. Again, a match for the arrival pattern of the Ethington family. Following are selections from Fischer s book that relate to the Ethington family migration study. Four Waves of Migration (page 6) During the very long period from 1629 to 1775, the present area of the United States was settled by at least four large waves of English-speaking immigrants. The first was an exodus of Puritans from the east of England to Massachusetts during a period of eleven year from 1629 to The second was the migration of a small Royalist elite and large numbers of indentured servants from the south of England to Virginia (ca ) 6. The fourth was a flow of English-speaking people form the borders of North Britain and northern Ireland to the Appalachian backcountry mostly during the half-century form 1718 to They carried across the Atlantic four different sets of British foldways which became the basis for regional cultures in the New World. New faces in the New World page 605) Early in the summer of 1717, the Quaker merchants of Philadelphia observed that immigrant ships were arriving in more than their usual numbers. By September, as the first hint 5 David Hackett Fischer Albion s Seed, Four British Folkways in America ( Oxford University Press 1989) 6 The prominent Virginia Edrington family (see Kay Edrington paper, this report page 93) appears to be a part of this immigration wave. They are found in the Northern Neck of Virginia in the mid 1600 s, have land and wealth, and never interact with the Culpeper/Spotsylvania Ethington family that apapear to be part of the later immigration from the borders area. DNA testing in 2002 confirms that this Edrington family is not related to the Culpeper/Sportsylvania Ethington families. The Ethington Family Organization Page 28

29 British Folkways in America of autumn was in the air, the Delaware River was crowded with vessels. They came not only form London and Bristol, but from Liverpool and Belfast, and small northern outports with strangesounding names Londonderry and Carrickfergus in northern Ireland, Kirkcudbright and Wigtown in Scotland, Whitehaven and Morecambe on the northern border of England. In October of the same year, a Philadelphia Quaker named Jonathan Dickinson complained that the streets of his city were teeming with a swarm of people strangers to our laws and customer, and even to our language. These new immigrants dressed in outlandish ways. The men were tall and lean, with hard, weather-beaten faces. They wore felt hats, loose sackcloth shirts close-belted at the waist, baggy trousers, thick yarn stockings and wooden shoes shod like a horse s feet with iron. The young women startled Quaker Philadelphia by the sensuous appearance of their full bodices, tight waists, bare legs and skirts as scandalously short as an English undershift. The older women came ashore in long dresses of a curious cut. Some buried their faces in full-sided bonnets; others folded handkerchiefs over their heads in quaint and foreign patterns. The appearance of these immigrants in the streets of Philadelphia marked the start of yet another great folk migration from Britain to America. The magnitude of this movement was very large more than a quarter-million people altogether. This was truly a mass migration, on a scale altogether different from the movements that had preceded it. Its rhythm was different too not a single migration but a series of wavelike movements that continued through much of the eighteenth century. It also drew from territories that bordered the Irish Sea the north of Ireland, the lowlands of Scotland, and the northern counties of England. Together they introduced still another variety of British culture to the New World. Numbers (page 608) Through the long period from 1718 to 1775, the annual number of immigrants from Ireland, Scotland and the north of England averaged more than 5,000 a year. At least 150,000 came from northern Ireland, sailing mostly from the ports of Belfast, Lough, Londonderry, Newry, Larne and Portrush. Another 75,000 departed form seaports in the west of Scotland, from the Clydebank to Solway Firth. At least 50,000 (probably more), left from coastal towns of northern England from Maryport to Merseyside. These are conservative estimates. The true magnitude may have been much larger. From the border counties of Scotland, 73 percent traveled in families. Many of the emigrants were women and girls. The sex ratio of those who left Scotland in the 1770s was 149 males for every 100 females an unusually even-handed distribution in an emigrant population. Quality of Persons (page 613) a somewhat larger group were independent yeomen who had achieved a measure of independence from the great landlords who dominated the border region. In Cumberland and Westmorland these yeomen were called the statesman class. Their numbers were comparatively small throughout this area, and even smaller in the emigrant stream. Most emigrants came from ranks below that of the gentry and statesmen. In the border counties of England and Scotland and northern Ireland as well, the majority were farmers and farm laborers who owned no land of their own, but worked as tenants and under tenants. A large minority were semiskilled craftsmen and petty traders. In northern Ireland, many had worked in the linen trade impoverished handloom weavers, unemployed agents, traders and entrepreneurs. The Ethington Family Organization Page 29

30 British Folkways in America Remarkably few came in bondage. From 1773 to 1776 indentured servants were only 1 percent of Scottish border emigrants, and less than 20 percent of those who had left the six northern counties of England. Origins (page 618) The emigration from Ulster was part of much larger flow which drew from the lowlands of Scotland, the north of England, and every side of the Irish Sea. Many scholars call these people Scotch-Irish. That expression is an Americanism, rarely used in Britain and much resented by the people to whom it was attached. We re no Eerish bot Scoatch., one of the was heard to say in Pennsylvania. Early in the twentieth century the English folklorist Cecil Sharp left his home in Stratford-on-Avon and spent many months in America s Appalachian highlands, collecting songs and dances of the back settlers. After careful comparison with British materials, he wrote of these people: From an analysis of their traditional songs, ballads, dances, singing-games, etc.they come from a part of England where the civilization was least developed probably the North of England, or the Border country between Scotland and England. The border region included six counties in the far north of England: Cumberland, Westmorland, and parts of Lancashire, Northumberland, Durham and parts of Yorkshire to the east. It also embraced five counties of southern Scotland Ayr, Dumfries, Wigtown, Roxburgh and Berwick. Reasons for leaving (Page 632) border violence landlords pacification evictions These people were refugees from a great historical transformation which had caught them in its complex coils. Some wished only to keep their own customs; others thought more of the future than the past. For both groups, the New World held the promise of a happiness which eluded them at home. In their teeming thousands they fled to America. Arrival in America (page 633) The borderers entered America principally through the ports of Philadelphia and Newcastle. They moved quickly into the surrounding countryside, and in the words of one official, simply squatted wherever they found a spot of vacant land. With much encouragement from Quaker leaders, the North Britons moved rapidly westward from Philadelphia into the rolling hills of the interior. Many drifted south and west along the mountains of Maryland, Virginia, and the Carolinas. They gradually became the dominant English-speaking culture in a broad belt of territory that extended from the highlands of Appalachia through much of the Old Southwest. The area of their settlement may be observed in the first U.S. Census of The distribution of surnames shows that immigrants from North Britain found their way into every part of the American colonies. But by far the largest concentration was to be found in the backcountry region that included southwestern Pennsylvania, the western parts of Maryland and Virginia, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky and Tennessee. Throughout that broad area, more than half of the population came from Scotland, Ireland and northern England. The Ethington Family Organization Page 30

31 British Folkways in America To the first settlers, the American backcountry was a dangerous environment, just as the British borderlands had been. Much of the southern highlands were debatable lands in the border sense of a contested territory without established government or the rule of law. The borderers were more at home than others in this anarchic environment, which was well suited to their family system, their warrior ethic, their farming and herding economy, their attitudes toward land and wealth and their ideas of work and power. So well adapted was the border culture to this environment that other ethnic groups tended to copy it. The ethos of the North British borders came to dominate this dark and bloody ground, partly by force of numbers, but mainly because it was a means of survival in a raw and dangerous world. Speech patterns (page 652) This southern highland speech has long been very distinctive for its patterns of pronunciation. It says whar for where, thar for there, hard for hired, critter for creature, sartin for certain, a-goin for going, hit for it, far for fire, deef for deaf, pizen for poison, nekkid for naked, eetch for itch, boosh for bush, wrassle for wrestle, chancy for china, chaw for chew, poosh for push, shet for shut, ba-it for bat, be-it for be, narrer for narrow, winder for window, and young-ins for young ones. Southern highland speech also has its own distinctive vocabulary in words such as fornenst (next to), skift (dusting of snow), fixin (getting ready to do something), brickle (brittle), swan (swear) [my grandmother Ethington from rural Kentucky would say in great disbelief, Well I swan --HDE], hant (ghost), hate (it ain t worth a hate), man (husband), cute (attractive), scawmy (misty), lowp (jump), lettin on (pretend), sparkin courting), hippin (a baby s diaper), bumfuzzled (confused), scoot (slide), and honey as a term of endearment. Scholars generally agree that this language developed from northern or Northumbrian English that was spoken in the lowlands of Scotland, in the North of Ireland, and in the border counties of England during the seventeenth and early eighteenth century. Every vocabulary word which we have noted as typical of American backcountry speech also appears in word lists collected in the English border counties of Cumberland and Westmorland during the nineteenth century. Housing (page 655) The Scotch Irish who began coming over in large numbers after 1718 seem to have been the first to adopt [the log cabin]. One soldier from the sough of England, marching north near Duns [close to the lands of Edington and Edrington] a few miles beyond the river Tweed, noted that the husbandmen s houses resemble our swine coates, few or none of them have more storeys than one, and that very low and covered usually with clods of earth, the people and their habits are suitable to the dwellings. Family (page 663) Beyond the nuclear core, beyond even the extended circle, there were two rings which were unique to this culture. One was called the derbfine. It encompassed all kin within the span of four generations. For many centuries, all laws of North Britain and Ireland had recognized the derbfine as a unit which defined the descent of property and power. It not only connected one nuclear family to another, but also joined one generation to the next. Beyond the derbfine lay a larger ring of kinship which was called the clan in North Britain. We think of clans today mainly in connection with the Scottish Highlands. But they also existed in the lowlands, northern Ireland and England s border counties where they were a highly effective adaptation to a world of violence and chronic insecurity. The Ethington Family Organization Page 31

32 British Folkways in America They had no formal councils, tartans, sporrans, bonnets or septs. But they were clannish in the most fundamental sense: a group of related families who lived near one another, were conscious of a common identify, carried the same surname, claimed descent from common ancestors and banded together when danger threatened. These North British border clans tended to settle together in the American backcountry. The Ethington Family Organization Page 32

34 Lineages Research Report 21 Jan 1986 (Harrison) LINEAGES RESEARCH REPORT (#44022 ETHINGTON) 21 January 1986 This report, concerned with the ancestry of William ETHINGTON (d. 1853) of Henry County, Kentucky, supplements a report dated 20 December The purpose of this latest phase of the ETHINGTON study was to test, largely through examining the court order books and minute books of Culpeper and Spotsylvania counties, Virginia, a traditional idea of the ETHINGTON ancestry. A selective examination of extant order books and minute books has been completed, and some attention was also given to other records of Culpeper and Spotsylvania counties, along with records of Fredericksburg, Virginia, which became an independent political jurisdiction at the end of the American Revolution. Three results of this latest effort should be noted: 1. Normal possibilities for documenting the ancestry of William ETHINGTON of Henry County, Kentucky have produced no proof, and seem to be exhausted. 2. The found record appears to support, though it does not prove, the traditional idea of ancestry. 3. The found record gives reason to include some variations of the name ETHINGTON in any future study but to exclude other variations. To begin an explanation of results at the wrong end of a time frame, with the oldest records rather than with the most recent records, it appears that originally the family name probably was ATHERTON. In old British records, the surname EDINGTON was distinct, as was ATHERTON. In America, both names were altered, at least in spelling, and most likely in pronunciation. In a few cases, variations of ATHERTON and EDINGTON could have become identical and mixed with each other. In 18th-century records of Spotsylvania and Culpeper counties, the name spellings ATHERTON and ETHERTON became interchangeable. Thereafter, the name sometimes appeared as ETHERINGTON or EDRINGTON. Except through a general recognition of the limited literacy of that time and an evolution in English speech, the name variations are not understood. However, documentation for the specific variations just mentioned can be found in Spotsylvania Minute Book page 245, in the Culpeper Minute Book pages 30, 51, and 163, and Culpeper Minute Book pages 14 and 156. The Ethington Family Organization Page 34

35 Lineages Research Report 21 Jan 1986 (Harrison) Further, in the Fredericksburg deed index, EDRINGTON and EDENTON were considered to be the same. In the later form, there could also have been an American merger of the British names ATHERTON and EDINGTON, but it is also possible that the Fredericksburg records were for members of a Stafford County, Virginia family that usually was called ETHERINGTON. Given so much latitude or confusion in spelling, it should be noted that no other documented ETHERTON became ETHINGTON, at least in that part of the family that moved from Virginia to Henry County, Kentucky. In a presumed family migration from Great Britain to Virginia to Kentucky, it appears that the fundamental mutation in the surname was ATHERTON to ETHERTON to ETHINGTON. Other suggested variations should be accepted with caution, if at all. Documentation enclosed with this report notes that in 1747, during the supposed time of the traditional immigrant shoemaker, one William ETHERTON appeared in a single record of Spotsylvania County. The fact that he has not been found in other Spotsylvania record suggests that he owned no land and left no will. It seems reasonable to suppose that he might have lived in Fredericksburg, which was at the time a growing tobacco market and commercial center. Personal associations implied in the one record of William ETHERTON suggest that he probably lived in St. George's Parish, which at that time included Fredericksburg, but where he actually did live has not been established. William ETHERTON of the Spotsylvania County record of 1747, is the only known possibility for father to Joseph ATHERTON, Francis ATHERTON, John ETHERTON, and William ETHERTON, all of whom later appeared in records of Spotsylvania and Culpeper. During the first fifty years of this presumed family in Virginia, no record of land ownership by any family member has been found, suggesting that many of the ETHERTONs, if not all of them, may have been tradesmen who did not look to the land for a livelihood. Documentation enclosed with this report connects an unidentified Spotsylvania County ETHERTON with Scott and Shelby counties, Kentucky in the early 19th century. While the current researcher has not been involved in the ETHINGTON study long enough to fully grasp the results of more than twenty years of effort by earlier compilers, it seems reasonable to say that William ETHERTON of 1747 is an acceptable possibility as the grandfather of Willliam ETHINGTON of Henry County, Kentucky. It is emphasized that no proof of lineage has been found Further, notwithstanding the fact that some of the unindexed order books have not yet been read, it seems unlikely that such proof will be found. In this situation, of an interest in trying to either discredit or strengthen the family legend, additional work might be done, especially research on names of associates of the ETHINGTONs and ETHERTONs who have drawn attention. As to prospects for proving a lineage, it seems clear that the study is now beyond a point of diminishing returns. Essentially, the early story of the ETHINGTON family in Virginia probably will continue to rest on tradition. J.E. HARRISON Genealogist LINEAGES, INC. The Ethington Family Organization Page 35

36 Lineages Research Report 13 Feb 1986 (Harrison) LINEAGES RESEARCH REPORT (#44022-JEC ETHINGTON) 13 February 1986 This report, concerned with the ancestry of William ETHINGTON (died 1853) of Henry County, Kentucky, continues a study that was last reported early in January. The work offered here contains new information, but remains conceptual. Strict genealogical proof is absent. The traditional account of the family history does seem to have been strengthened. An affidavit already in the files connects William ETHINGTON with Culpeper County, Virginia. Document 2, enclosed, locates the supposed Culpeper County birthplace of William ETHINGTON-- Winston, Virginia. Because the spelling of the surname has caused so much confusion. it seems necessary to consider the family as it might have been, working forward in time, beginning with the name itself, which is thought to have been spelled originally ATHERTON. Tradition speaks of an immigrant shoemaker, who was perhaps the William ETHERTON who appeared in Spotsylvania County records in A second record for someone believed to be the same William has been found, William ATHERINGTON, a resident of Spotsylvania County in Thus, the spelling problem was not something that later developed in American records; it was there from the beginning. The records from 1747 to 1755 seem to document the inception of a mixed surname spelling found in what is thought to have been three generations of one family in records of five counties in two states. Spelling in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was sometimes casual, but the difficulty with this surname seems to go beyond indifferent records keeping, suggesting a problem in phonetics. The records clerks seem to have been unable to describe in English writing the way the name was pronounced. A tentative explanation is offered here, for testing over a period of time by persons interested in the history of this family. It seems likely that the sound of the surname, as spoken in Colonial times, would be unfamiliar to a contemporary American. The name was something of four syllables that might have been drawn like this: A D - R - NG - TON E TH The second syllable was firm, easily understood, always present, while the third syllable was very soft, nearly inaudible and sometimes missing from the written name. The initial letter was neither an A nor an E, but something between those two, given in some later spellings as EA, a sort of reverse diphthong, followed by a sound that was somewhere between D and TH. The spoken name probably could not be spelled any better in modern writing than it was in the eighteenth century. The Ethington Family Organization Page 36

37 Lineages Research Report 13 Feb 1986 (Harrison) The surname is supposed to have had its genesis in the north of England. The immigrant ATHERTON is thought to have come here from Scotland, which seems plausible. Whether an eighteenth-century Scottish dialect of the English language might have generated the spelling problem is not known. At the time the presumed immigrant came to America, a proper English spelling of the surname was ATHERTON, but an acceptable alternate spelling was EDRINGTON. In time, the third syllable became firm; the second syllable disappeared. ATHERTON became ETHINGTON. With an understanding that such speculation could be wrong, it is submitted that a keen interest in the name is not an academic exercise. The study needs some explanation as a basis for making sometimes difficult choices among the few records that seem to be available. William ETHERTON / ATHERINGTON of Colonial Spotsylvania is thought to be the best known possibility as the legendary immigrant progenitor of the American family that produced William ETHINGTON of Henry County, Kentucky. Several things about the presumed immigrant should be noted: 1. There is reason to suspect that William ETHERTON of Spotsylvania County might have been related to Jeremiah ADERTON of Maryland. 2. In the found record, William ETHERTON of Spotsylvania County in 1755 is distinct from his contemporary, William ETHERINGTON of Stafford County, who was father to Thomas (born 1743), Christopher (born 1749), John (born 1753), and James (born 1756). No reason has been found to suppose that the two families either were or were not related. Their geographic proximity is interesting and emphasizes a need for careful and conventional research, working backward in time, documenting each generation. 3. William ETHERTON of Spotsylvania County in 1755 might have been the father of five men whose names are found in Crozier 15 Spotsylvania County Records: Francis ATHERTON (page 524), James EDERTON (page 23), John ETHERTON (page 460), Joseph ATHERTON (page 432), and William ETHERTON (page 319). 4. William ETHERTON of Spotsylvania County in 1755 perhaps was not the father of two other men mentioned in Crozier: Christopher EDRINGTON (page 381) and Thomas ETHERINGTON (page 222), whose names appear in the Stafford County family. Because the second syllable of the surname seems to have been pronounced distinctly in the eighteenth century, it seems probable that the early American ETHERTONs and ETHERINGTONs were not related to families with similarly spelled surnames that lacked the R sound in the second syllable, for example EDDINGTON. Exceptions have been found, but in general the idea seems to be true. To try to establish a framework for possible further study, the following comment is offered in chronological sequence: 1732 Robert BEVERLEY obtained a patent for land in Caroline County, Virginia for The Ethington Family Organization Page 37

Whether that river is the watercourse now called Northeast Creek is not known. All of the neighbors names appear in Crozier s Spotsylvania County Records, seemingly reputable middle-class citizens. None were prominent. This record of William ATHERINGTON was found in the unindexed film number 34089, which is exceptionally weak. The effort to read that film for names was something less than 50 percent effective, which leaves a bothersome gap in the study Sarah HICKS of Whitehaven in County Cumberland, England, executrix of the late Wm. HICKS of Whitehaven granted a power-of-attorney to Col. John CARLYLE of Alexandria, Fairfax County, Virginia to receive from Jeremiah ADERTON of Chicamaxen, Province of Maryland, or any other persons, sums, etc. (Crozier, page 209). It is hard to understand why the power-of-attorney was recorded in Spotsylvania County unless William HICKS or Jeremiah ADERTON had some business connection with Spotsylvania, where William ETHERTON lived George Washington's soldiers, for whom the immigrant is said to have made shoes, were involved in the French and Indian War James EDERTON was married to Lucy, daughter of Joseph PETERSON, who was a neighbor to William ATHERINGTON (Crozier, page 23, and Document 4 to this report).

In some, but not all, Virginia- Kentucky families of that time, the first son was named for his paternal grandfather. A fashion that seems to have reached its peak in the first half of the nineteenth century proves nothing, but does point out a possibility that needs examination. Nugent's Cavaliers and Pioneers, Volume III, ends with the year William ETHERTON is first found in Spotsylvania County in If he was claimed as a headright, his name should be found once in one of the Patent Books reproduced in eleven rolls of microfilm. The books are indexed only for names of patentees. A search of each roll of film, reading for names of headrights, would amount to at least a day of work, probably more than that, assuming the names could be read. Three or four weeks of searching is not beyond imagination. If the one mention of the name is missed, the work fails. Before risking that much, it would seem practical to explore an idea that William ETHERTON might have come into Virginia from Maryland and was not a Virginian headright. It is a truism that in genealogical studies something can always be done that has not been done. As to this study, possibilities for documenting the relationship of William ETHINGTON (died 1853) to his father--james, John, or Joseph--in Salt Lake City appear to be so limited that they might be said to be practically exhausted. Possibilities for documenting the names of sons of William ATHERINGTON who lived in Spotsylvania County in 1755 also appear to be exhausted unless a much better copy of film number can be located. Film was hurriedly scanned for names because the week was drawing to a close, but the time period covered by that film seems comparatively less important while the time period in is a matter of some concern. During much of that time, the ink of the original records has become bleached. It is possible that this part of the search could be accomplished only at the Spotsylvania County courthouse. The best remaining prospects for establishing the lineage are thought to be in the holdings of original court records at Kentucky Archives in Frankfort and at Virginia State Library in Richmond.

43 Ethington Surnames in England & Scotland BACKGROUND Years of research by the Ethington Family Organization, and many others, has failed to yield the source of the American Ethington Family. Proof is not yet sure, but the apparent ancestor of the Ethingtons, the Etheringtons of Owen county KY, and the Edentons of Virginia is one William Ethington who is active in Spotsylvania county Virginia in the early 1700 s. It appears that these families all descend from his sons William, James, John, Francis and Joseph who each lived in that county. William Ethington Sr. s parents are not known, nor is it known if he was born in the United States, or if he was an immigrant. The Edrington family has been extensively researched by Kay Edrington of La Pointe Utah, Bob Cheatham of Maryland, and others. Their ancestor, Christopher Edrington appears very early in Virginia, and seems to have come from England. Kay Edrington has gathered information leading to the conclusion that the Ethington name is derived from the Adder River Valley, in Southern Scotland. A book by W.F.H. Nicolaisen 7 proposes this theory, and follows the name from the town ( tun ) on the Adder River, through several forms (Adder, Adderingtun, Edderingtun, Ederington, Edrington, Ethrington, Ethington ) to its many forms today. The name appears in its earliest forms as early as the year 1100, and is found in many records up to the present day. Scottish Records Following Mr. Nicolaisen s work, Kay Edrington soon realized that the Edrington names were found in many different English and Scottish counties. In talks with Harold Ethington, the idea was born to study the placement of the names in early English and Scottish records, in an effort to isolate the earliest uses of each form of the name 8. It was hoped that this would provide some clue as to the origin of the family, and either support or refute Dr. Nicolaisen s theory. The Mormon Church (of Salt Lake City Utah) has recently concluded an extensive project computerizing early Scottish church records. These records included baptisms, confirmations, and marriages from the years 1500 through the late 1800 s. The size of the data base is not stated, but involves millions of names. This was the first source of data for this study. The second source was the International Genealogical Index (IGI), again published by the Mormon Church. This data base contains approximately 300 million records of events in 7 Scottish Place Names by W.F.H. (Bill) Nicolaisen, B.T. Batsford Ltd. London c An excellent study of British surnames in the Americas is Albion s Seed, Four British Folkways in America by David Hackett Fischer Oxford University Press See chapter titled Borderlands to the Backcountry, a study of borderers who immigrated to the Virginia backcountry. Also, for further understanding of the Border problem, see George MacDonald Fraser s The Steel Bonnets. The Ethington Family Organization Page 43

44 Ethington Surnames in England & Scotland person s lives: baptisms, confirmations, marriages, deaths, and births. Both the IGI and the Scottish Records are indexed in such a way that one can look for alternate ways of spelling any name, and ask for a copy of all similar name spellings. This search of the IGI and the Scottish Church Records yielded almost 3,000 references to Ethington and similar names. This information was downloaded to a diskette in the form of a GEDCOM file, and transferred to a Personal Ancestral File (PAF) data base where it could be converted back into individual information. A report was then run out of PAF, and sent to a DOS text file. The spreadsheet program Excel (Microsoft) was then used to convert this text file into a spreadsheet, where it could be further manipulated and sorted. The reports created in Excel are as follows: REPORTS Report A A list of all names found, in alphabetical order of their original spelling, and the frequency of appearance in England, Scotland, and both countries combined. Not all of these names will be part of our families, but the thought here was to throw a large net, and see what we came up with. As I look at the data, I think we can eliminate the Addingtons, and perhaps the Harintons. The numbers on succeeding reports would change significantly. Report B A list of all names found, in descending order of frequency. You can see that Addington is the second highest name on the list and Harrington is not far behind. Report C Raw data sorted by (1) County, (2) Town, and (3) year. The sort did not extend to the parish level. Towns with more than about 10 entries have been set of by a blank line at the head of that town s listings. Entries within a town name will be in year order. It is easy to see from this report that Addington is very strong in Bedford, while the I dingtons are found almost exclusively in East Lothian. These may be keys in tracing the different families mingled in these records. Report D Male and Female given names, by century, both countries combined. It is interesting to see that the most common male names are Biblical, or English Kings. The same is true for the female names. This should be a representative sample of the whole universe of family activity for this area, but note that there are less than a thousand males, but over 2,000 females. I cannot explain this anomaly, but think that a review of the source documents may reveal that they are biased in favor of recording females over males. Report E A set of 8 reports, of 3 pages each. This lists the occurrence of the 21 most used spellings, sorted by county, and bracketed in 20 year increments. The counties have been listed from South to North across the three page sections, giving some idea of the spatial relationship between the usages of the names. For instance, you can see that Addington is used mainly in the counties of Bedford, and Northhampton. The Ethington Family Organization Page 44

45 Ethington Surnames in England & Scotland Report F A plotting of the names from Report E on maps of Scotland and England. There are 13 maps for each country, with the number of occurrences written in each county, for each 20 year period. Things to keep in mind when reading these maps are: The records found may not represent the true distribution of the family record keeping in such early times as this was scanty and sporadic at best. Also, these numbers may contain references to families that are not related. Report G Chirnside Past and Present by Erica Hunt. This small booklet was purchased by Pat Ethington Beadle on a trip to Scotland several years ago. She spent some time at the Edrington Mains, and has indicated that location on the map included. Report H The Surnames of Scotland by Black. Mr. Black has listed many early references to the Edington name on page 239 of his highly detailed work. He states that the name originates with the old barony of the same name in the parish of Chirnside, Berwickshire. Chirnside lies in the Adder River valley, which supports the conclusions drawn by Nicolaisen. Since Black s references are not specific to present-day counties, I have not included them in the other reports. However, a study of their geographic placements would surely shed greater light on the events of Black shows a number of references from the years 1100 through Report I Scottish Place Names by W.F.H. Nicolaisen Special note is made of the Edrington names on pages 25 and 73. Mr. Nicolaisen relates this family name to the Berwickshire area, and traces its development as follows: there remains a genuine residue of early material in such Berwickshire names as Edington, (Hadynton 1095 [15 th ] farm associated with *Ead(d)a ; Edrington (Hadryngton 1095 [15 th ] farm associated with the river Adder Report J Kay Edrington research on English and Scottish origins Articles written by Kay over the years as he has evaluated the English and Scottish occurrences of the name. These reports may all be found at the family web site, The Ethington Family Organization Page 45

46 Ethington Surnames in England & Scotland PRELIMINARY CONCLUSIONS While you will each have your own ideas, these things seem to come out of this for me: 1. Spellings: I had no idea that there could be so many ways to spell the name we hear when we say it. As you read these names, and say them out loud, I think you can see that they are all very similar. Remember, the H would be silent, and the D is interchangeable with the TH sound in early Scottish dialect. 2. I was surprised to see that the spelling Edington is the most common. It is also among the earliest, found in the town of Puritan, in Somerset England in The spelling Ethington is very rare, and found only in the town of Haddington, East Lothian, Scotland in Edrington is the 9 th highest frequency. 3. The name seems to appear in southern England about 40 years before it is seen in southern Scotland. I think this may be just a difference in availability of records, and should not be taken to mean that the name originated in southern England. In there is a sudden emergence of the name in Mid and East Lothian -- an area close to the supposed origin of the family, in the Adder River Valley. 4. It seems to me that while there is a continuing presence in the southern English counties of Somerset, Sussex, Surrey, and of course London, there is a stronger presence in the northern counties of Yorkshire, Durham, Northumberland, and Cumberland. These northern counties are close to the southern Scottish counties of Berwick, East Lothian, and Midlothian where the family again, appears to be very strong. Continuing Research We must carefully consider our efforts in Scottish or English research. We have not yet identified our immigrant ancestor, and really have no idea where he may have come from. Major efforts in either England or Scotland may be totally misguided, without some signal from the Americas as to port of departure or point of origin. While this study has been interesting, and intriguing in the hints it offers to us, perhaps its greatest value will come in the future once more is learned about our first American ancestor. With this caution in mind, there is one thing that should be done. We must make a search for any organization in England or Scotland that may have worked on our family names. There could be an English Edrington Family Organization, or some other similar group that is looking for their lost American cousins. At the very least, this aspect of our Old World ancestry should be examined. Reports follow. The Ethington Family Organization Page 46

In the 250 years after Thomas, we see a virtual circle of Ethington references surrounding the Chirnside area: Foulden, Edrington, Duns, Fogo, Polwarth, Longformacus and others all show the growth and spread of persons with several name variations in this specific area. It should be remembered that data collection of these name references is not complete, and could be presenting a skewed picture. The Ethington Family Organization Page 50

61 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) EDRINGTON, Berwickshire The Castle and early reference focusing on The Lauder Family Ownership of Edrington Lands by Gregory Lauder Frost of The Old School House Mordington, Nr. Foulden Berwickshire TD15 1XA and 58 Coleshill Flats Pimlico Road London SW1W 8LL Tel Carr s Coldingham Priory states that Edrington derived its name from its contiguity to the river Whitadder but he does not further explain how he associates the names. James Logan Mack 9 suggests that it is no doubt the case that what is now the Whitadder was formerly the Adder, and Edrington, Adderton, or Addrington. In Berwickshire to this day, the reptile known as the adder is frequently called an Ether, and Edrington in like manner was pronounced Etherington. He refers to Edrington as One of the earliest Border strongholds. The ancient castle occupied the summit of a steep bank above the Whitadder, and must have been a place of considerable strength and importance. Year 1097 An early reference to Edrington is in Coldingham Parish and Prior 10 which mentions charters (c. 1097) of King Edgar by which were granted the profits of the mansions of inter alia, Fulden & Hadrington [Founden and Edrington] for the souls of his House [i.e. the Priory]. Year 1304 There is a reference in the year 1304 to The King s lands of Edringtone, and also the King s mill there in Joseph Bain s Calendar of Documents Relating to Scotland 11. [All lands were held by the superior landlord, from the King.] However, in a small booklet the Parish of Mordington 12 the authoress suggests that the King was Edward the First of England. These were disputed lands, as we have already seen, above, with the charters referring to King Edgar, although Edrington has always been firmly in Scotland. 9 The Border Line, Edinburgh, A. Thomson Galashiels, Edinburgh Mrs. W.R. Johnson, Berwick-upon-Tweed, 1966 The Ethington Family Organization Page 61

62 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) We now come to the ancient family of Lauder of Bass, for centuries the proprietors of Edrington. The family of Lauder came to Scotland with Malcolm Canmore, and are recorded as prominent from 1320 and amongst those below the rank of earl who have been considered as belonging to the Scottish higher nobility between 1325 and This family had campaigned with both Sir William Wallace, and Robert the Bruce who had appointed Sir Robert de Laweder of the Bass Justiciary of Scotland South of the Forth. On the 28 th July 1328, Robert the Bruce granted a charter of restitution to Sir Henry Percy of all his father s lands and rents, etc., in Scotland. Witnesses to this charter included Roberto de Lawedre, father (or senior), Knight 14. Year 1330 John J. Reid, B.A., F.S.A., (Scot) writing in The Proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries (14 th December, 1885) on Early Notices of the Bass Rock and its Owners stated : Sir Robert of Lauder of Bass was, in 1329, employed on a mission to England, no doubt diplomatic in its character, and payments out of public funds amounting to 60 were made to him for the expense of his journeys to London and York. In 1330 he possessed hereditarily the fishings of Edrington [Berwickshire] and was Keeper of Berwick Castle and Sheriff there. Year 1331 In the accounts of Sir Alexander de Seton, Collector of the Burgh of Berwick 16 th March 1331, it states: Allowed to accountants for the fisher [fishing rights] of Edermouth [Whiteadder] now in possession of Sir Robert de Lawder by right of inheritance; paid to Robert de Lawder balance of his fee of 50 merks, 6.13s.4p; and for his fee due at Martinmas, 33.6s.8p 15. Another notice indicating the very local connection is the following: Roberto de Lawedre, Militibus, Justiciario Lowdonie was a witness in a charter granted by Randolph, Earl of Moray, to John, Earl of Angus, of Morthyntoun [Mordington] in Edrington to this day lies within the parish of Mordington. Year 1333 Sir Robert Lauder or Lavedre both father and son were present at the battle of Halidon Hill, in [20 th July] The famous chronicler Knyghton also states that Sir Robert Senior was present but did not take part due to the fact that he was unable to dismount from his horse in full armour owing to his advanced age. Halidon Hill is just two miles from Edrington Castle. J. Stewart Smith states that The eldest son of Lauder of Bass took Edrington during his father s lifetime. 18 Year 1325 Mr. Logan Mack (above) then refers us to a charter of 1325 whereby the village and fishings of Eddermouth are bestowed upon William de Pressin, Lord Warden of Jedburgh Forest. But this undoubtedly is a charter by the English King, this being shortly after the battle of Halidon Hill, when He was confiscating properties of families known to be loyal to the Scottish Crown. Year 1335 In A Calendar of Documents Relating to Scotland, there appears a charter dated circa 1335 which mentions numerous properties in and around Berwick-upon-Tweed which Robert the Bruce had granted to Sir Robert de Louwedere (another spelling in the same charter is Lowedre) senior, and his son Robert 19. Berwick having now fallen into the hands of the English, Robert de. Lawedre junior is forfeited of these properties which are then granted by Edward III of England to Adam of Corbridge. 13 Essays on the Nobility of Medieval Scotland edited by K.J.

63 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) Year 1376 The Great Seal of Scotland states that in 1376 Adam de Paxtoun forfeited Edrington Mill, (which lies immediately below the hamlet of Paxton, on the opposite side of the Whiteadder, and directly below Edrington Castle) due to his part in a rebellion at that time. However I can see no record anywhere that de Paxton had held property at Edrington from the Scottish Crown, and one wonders whether this had been an English, and therefore temporary, ownership also. Possibly his part was to take the English side in a Scottish revolt. Clearly it reverted to the Lauder family, as they continue to be recorded as such in Scottish annals. Year 1423 Robertus de Lawedre de Edryngtoune de Scotia, mils. [knight] is mentioned along with Venerabillis pater Wills epus Glasguen cancellar Scotie [William Lauder, Bishop of Glasgow and Chancellor of Scotland] and Patricius de Dunbar de Bele de Scotia, mils, under date of 12 th May 1423 in the Rotuli Scotiae. Again on the 19 th August 1423 when he was envoy for the ransom of James 1; and again on 3 rd December of that same year. Joseph Bain (1888), quoting from Foedera and other original documents, confirms this. Year 1425 On the 14 th December he was invested in the seniority of the family estates: The King confirms to Robert de Lawedre of Edringtoun, knight, justiciario Scotia, the lands of le Crag, Balgone, the Bass, Edringtoun, Simprin, Easter Pencaitland, Newhall, etc., for him and his legitimate heirs. According to Alexander Nisbet he was Justiciar of the Lothians 21. Describing him as Roberto de Lawedre de Edringtoun Militi J.J. Reid (1888) mentions that this Sir Robert was also an Auditor of Exchequer and between 1425 and 1433 he was Governor of Edinburgh Castle. His name can be seen today on the Table of Governors on display in the Great hall at Edinburgh Castle. Year His son thereafter took Edrington, and we find a charter by Sir James Hamilton of Cadzow dated 7 th September 1439 confirming a charter by Robert Lauder of Edrington to Robert Lauder, his son, of the lands and patronage of Auldcathie in Linlithgowshire 22. In The North Berwick Story it is noted that Sir Robert de Lawedre de Eddringtoun, knight, endowed an alter to St. Mary in North Berwick Church on 4 th March Further, in a charter dated 20 th June 1443 re the lands of Hownam, Robert of Lawadre of Eddringtoun appears as a witness 24. On 20 th June 1443 Robert Lawadre [Lauder] of Eddrington, William Hepburn, David Home son and heir of Sir David Home, George Home and Thomas Home all witnessed a charter sighed at Dunglas 25. Year 1450 James Logan Mack (1926) states that about the year 1450 Edrington was conveyed by James II of Scotland to Robert Lauder of Bass but as we have noted they were already designated as of Edrington so this must have been another reconfirmation. Year I have not found the property in any other Scots possession nor this charter, but certainly in another Great Seal charter dated 25 th April 1450 of the lands of Popill, [today s Papple] in Haddingtonshire, to a David de Lawder, it is mentioned that he is a nephew of Robert Lawder of Edringtoune. The same Robert de Lawedre Lord of Edrington, militibus appears as a witness to a charter to Patrick de Dunbar de Bele, militia, signed in the castle of Bele and confirmed at Edinburgh 24 th April The Great Seal of Scotland number Systems of Heraldry.

64 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) Year About 1462 Berwick Castle was put into the hands of Robert Lauder of Edrington, an important official and soldier in Scotland at that time. Lauder kept his position uninterruptedly till 1474 when he was succeeded by David Earl of Crawford. In 1464 Robert Lauder was paid 20 for repairs made to Berwick Castle. 27 (See also a further appointment below). Robert de Laweder de Edringtoun is the first witness to a Retour of Service dated 1467 of Margaret Sinclair as one of the heirs of her grandfather John Sinclair in the lands of Kimmerghame, Berwickshire 28. Year 1471 In a charter of 1471 the King confirms to Robert Lauder son and heir apparent of Robert Lauder of Edrington, the lands of Edrington and Coalstell with the fishings of Edermouth [Whitadder] plus the mill there [at Edrington] which Robert the father personally resigned to Robert junior and his male heirs failing which those relations bearing the Lauder arms. The spouse of Robert senior gave her consent and is recorded therein as Jonette 29. Year 1474 In a further charter signed at Edinburgh 26 th June 1474 and confirmed there on 27 th July 1475, the King confirms a charter of Robert Lauder junior, Lord of Edringtoun, as superior of West Nisbet, to David Creichtoun of Cranstoun and his heirs, the lands of West Nisbet in the barony of Pencaitland. Haddingtonshire, which John de Colquhoun of Luss has resigned into the said Robert Lauder junior s hands. Witnesses included Robert Lauder of Bass, father of said Robert junior, and a William Lauder 30. Year 1477 On 20 th January 1477 the King appointed Robert Lauder of Edrington as custodian of the castle at Berwick-upon-Tweed for five years with a retainer of 200 merks per annum 31. However we know he was not at the castle the following month, as on 2 nd February 1477, King James of Scotland advised the bearers of the installment of Princess Cecilia s dower that he has sent, amongst other, Robert Lawdir of Edrington, son and heir apparent to Robert Lawdir of the Bass, to conduct them to Edinburgh 32. Year 1478 On 3 rd February 1478 Robert Lauder was reappointed Keeper of the Castle at Berwickupon-Tweed at a salary of 250 per annum. He continued till the last year of Scottish occupation, when Patrick Hepburn of Hailes had possession 33. The printed Exchequer Rolls 34 record that payments were made to Robert Lauder, Captain and Keeper of the castle at Berwick-upon-Tweed in 1480 and Year 1482 In July 1482, Edrington Castle was burnt by the Duke of Gloucester s army but was soon afterwards rebuilt and fortified by order (and presumably paid for ) of the Scottish Parliament. Year 1489 On 12 th September, 1489 a Charter signed at Linlithgow from King James IV confirmed to his squire, Robert Lauder of Edrington various lands. This Robert Lauder of Edrington had married Isobel Hay, daughter of John Hay 1 st Lord of Yester, a descendant, appropriately, of Robert the Bruce and his wife Mary Lindsay. 27 Berwick-upon-Tweed, The History of the Town and Buld by John Scott, London Hist.

65 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) Year The printed Exchequer Rolls 35 records Robert Lauder of Edrington in possession of the lands of Glensax in Yarrow, Selkirkshire in 1489, 1490, and Robert s father evidently lived for a long time as the son appears in a great many charters and documents styled of Edrington right up to about 1495 when he succeeded to all the family estates. These actions are all found in The Great Seal. Year Various charters of further confirmations of Edrington to the Lauders exist throughout the following century including number 3330 confirmed 29 th March 1509 which mentions the next Robert Lauder of Edrington and his father Sir Robert Lauder of Bass [who had married Isobel Hay]; and on 29 th April 1519 Sasine from the Crown, was confirmed to [the new] Robert Lauder of Bass, as superior, of the [lower] half of island of the Bass [the superior of the upper half was the Church, which Lauder held by feu]; the lands of Edringtoun with tower, mill, and fishing rights and all pertinents extending to [at least] 15 husbandlands &c. 36. Year 1540 About 1540 the Lords of Council issued a summons against Ninian Trotter at the instance of Robert Lauder of the Bass, who claimed that Mr. Trotter had interfered with people using Robert Lauder s mill at Edrington in Berwickshire. Trotter had now abducted and imprisoned Mr. Rauf Cook from Berwick, who, with Lauder s consent, had come to grind his corns at the said Robert s myln forsaid. 37. Year 1542 On the 24 th May, 1542, there is recorded a dispute between Robert Lauder of the Bass and Robert Dury of that ilk, over the ownership of certain Melrose lands 38. Year 1546 About 1546 Edrington Castle was again captured by the English and in that year the Scots demanded that their house of Edrington should be immediately restored to them; and in accordance with a Treaty concluded in the church at Norham, Edward VI delivered it up. Year The Lauder family were renowned Royalists. In the Register of the Privy Council of Scotland 39 it is recorded that Robert Lawder of Bass had loaned two thousand pounds to Queen Mary and Darnley. This Robert was with Queen Mary at Carberry Hill on 14 th June1567, and subsequently at the battle of Langside, and on 5 th July 1568 at Edinburth, Casper Home was granted an escheat of the goods of Robert Lawder of Bass, including his cattle and other goods on the steading and lands of Eddringtoun and the dues of the mill thereof, in the sheriffdom of Berwick, the said Robert being convicted, become in will, fugitive or at the horn for taking part with Archibald Earl of Argyll, Claud Hammiltoun, and others at Langsyde or for not finding surety to underlie the law for art and part in the slaughter there of one a James Ballany 40. This escheat was later removed by a Precept of Remission. Year 1576 This last Robert Lauder of Bass (died June 1576, Testament) was unlucky with his sons. His eldest, Sir Robert Lauder of Poppill, predeceased him (April 1575) as did at least one other, John, who died about The next in line was James, Dean of Restairig, who was subsequently murdered by his uncle Walter Lauder in October The Bass and all other Lauder lands usually held in chief by the head of the family then devolved upon the next brother, also a cleric, George, then rector of Auldcathy, a Lauder possession in Fife. 35 ibid, vol X , pps 652, 679, The Exchequer Rolls of Scotland , edited by A.E.J.G.

66 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) Year 1598 In Charter number 688 of The Great Seal, a reconfirmation at Holyroodhouse on 21 st March 1598, of, amongst a vast list of baronies, estates and lands, we find Eddrington belonging to Sir George Lauder of Bass (knighted 1590) who was a Privy Counsellor and personal friend of King James VI and tutor to his son, Prince Henry. Sir George, like several of his predecessors, married late in life Lady Isabella, sister to Sir Patrick Hepburn of Waughton. This charter also confirms the superiority of Edrington to his only son and heir, George junior (born 1597). Year 1587 (& 1670) George s younger brother, William, was at sometime confirmed to Edrington. In The Journals of Sir John Lauder, Lord Fountainhall, Sir John states that during a journey he made with his father to the Borders in 1670 he saw Paxton, and Edringtone a part of [Lauder of] Basses lands, and given away to a brother; now belongs to my Lord Mordington. The younger brother was subsequently described as William Lauder of Edrington in a precept of clare constat containing a precept of sasine dated 7 th September 1587 granted by his brother George Lauder of Bass (but possibly only then as a feuholder of his brother). Year 1587 In a Sasine 42 registered 10 th March 1634 the late William Lauder of Edrington is mentioned as having received the abovementioned precept of sasine dated 7 th September 1587 from Mr. George Lauder of Bass as heir to the deceased Patrick Lauder his brother, and on 28 th March 1588 the said William was infeft as heir to his late brother in an annualrent of ten merks yearly to be uplifted from the lands of Mekilrig and another annualrent of seven merks to be uplifted from the lands of Stenton. These were subsequently confirmed on William s son Robert as we note from a Duns Sheriff Court Deed 43 dated 6 th November 1622 that Robert is now referred to as of Edrington indicating that William the father was now dead. Year 1611 When Sir George Lauder of Bass died in 1611 he left a considerable estate of moveables which alone were valued then at circa 26,000 (Testament). Lands were dealt with separately and in any case Sir George had already invested his son in the family estates. However, this was the century of absolute corruption in Scotland (and also the century from which most Scottish titles date!). When Sir George died his heir was only 14 years old and his estate was placed in the hands of Curators, the principal being his mother. Year 1626 They handled matters badly and by 1626 young George and his mother were in some difficulties with a forced sale of the Tynninghame Estate to new money, which they had owned since the twelfth century, imminent. It also heralded the approaching end of this family s long ownership of Edrington. Year A Sheriff Court Deed from Duns 44 dated there on 6 th November 1622 records an Alexander Lauder brother to Robert Lauder of Edrington in conjunction with an Alexander Torie in Over Mordington, a nearby estate. A sasine registered on 10 th March mentions the late William Lauder of Edringtoune [uncle to the last George of Bass] and his eldest lawful son and apparent heir, Robert. Robert s brother Alexander is also mentioned here and we note from The Edinburgh Apprentice s Register that they had another brother, William, son to William Lauder of Edrington who was indentured in Robert was still alive in 1642, living off the annualrents of Poppill in 41 The Journals of Sir John Lauder, Lord Fountainhall, edited by Donald CVrawford, Edinburgh, 1900 page RS 25/22 fol SC60/56/1 44 SC 60/56/1 45 RS 25/22 fol. 82 The Ethington Family Organization Page 66

67 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) Haddingtonshire 46, but his of Edrington designation is by then missing. In this Sasine, Robert was now resigning them to Sir Patrick Hepburn of Waughton. Year 1628 In The Cockburns of that Ilk and their Cadets 47, Isobel, a daughter, it is said, of a John Laudr of Edrington is recorded as having married Captain Walter Cockburn, brother of John Cockburn of Tretton. She was dead by July 1628 and it is not clear who her father was, as there has not been a John Lauder of Edrington. But he may have been a son of one of the last Robert Lauders of Bass, the last two dying in 1561 and 1576 respectively, or of the already mentioned William Lauder of Edrington (died c. 1622). Year There are several mentions in The Great Seal of transfers/sales of Edrington in the 17 th century including one to a James Livingston, A gentleman of the King s Bedchamber (hardly the heroic and dashing knight that the Lauders were!), confirmed at Whitehall on 31 st January, 1632; and another to John Hamilton of Skirling in September But they appear to have been wadsets with legal reversions. Certainly that seems to be the case with regard to John Hamilton. Year 1634 Interestingly, the next charter of note, identical in wording to that of James Livingstone, above, was confirmed on 18 th January 1634 to Richard Lauder, Laird of Haltoun. But again, there was clear mention of a legal revision if certain debts were paid and that again appears to have happened as we find on 28 th October 1635 all the lands in the original charter of 1632 reverting to the lackey James Livingstone, this time confirmed at Hampton Court. Year 1641 However the one with which we are concerned with here is The Great Seal charter number 1021, registered at Edinburgh on 15 th November It contains a long list of old Lauder lands, resigned by James Livingstone which had also been [previously] resigned by the last Lauder laird of Bass, George, and his mother, Isobella Hepburn, Lady Bass, and which were now being confirmed upon her brother Sir Patrick Hepburn of Waughton. These lands included Edrington in Berwickshire. It is thought that as the Lauders were renowened Royalists and Sir Patrick being a commander in the Covenanting Army this was good secure move. However, it was not. In under five years these lands passed to his son, John Hepburn, apparent of Waughton, and Lady Marie Ross his wife, John being the son and heir of Sir Patrick Hepburn of Waughton, knight who had died 48. John was an Episcopalian minister and a Royalist. Year John Hebpurn of Waughton was forced to resign Edrington in charter 1948 dated 1 st March 1648 to James Scott, a merchant-burgess of Edinburgh. Mr. Scott was dead by June 1653 when his wife, Jeanete Archibald, was described as his relict in a charter of that date. It then passed to another of his family, probably his son, Patrick Scott, who also became a merchant-burgess of Edinburgh 49, and who was designated of Edringtoune in a charter dated 22 nd February 1653 when he was confirmed in the lands of Langshaw in the barony of Melrose. There was in this latter Great Seal charter, mention of other kin: The Scotts of Harperrig Clerkington. The aforementioned Richard Lauder of Haltoun (d. 1675) was married to Marion, daughter of Sir Lawrence Scott of Harperring & Clerkington, so possibly there is an indirect family connexion with Edrington here. Patrick Scott of Edrington & Langshaw was married to a Curie Durie. It is possible that 46 Sasine RS 25/30 fol The compiler of these volumes, Cockburn-Hood, is known as much for his good work as for his errors 48 The Great Seal 5 th August Burgess Roll 10/1/1655 The Ethington Family Organization Page 67

68 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) there is another connection, as in 1542, the Lauders had legal dealings with Durie of that Ilk over lands at Melrose. Year 1661 Patrick resigned The Lands of Edrington, with fishings etc. and The manorplace, in conjunction with at James Winraham [we know not how he came to have some part in the sale. Possibly he was a creditor with a wadset], on 16 th June 1661 by sale, recorded in The Great Seal, to James [Douglas], Master of Mordington, eldest lawful son of William, Lord Mordington and his heirs male, whom failing, to William Douglas his next younger brother and his heirs male, whom failing to Francis Douglas his second brother etc. Included separately in this charter are the town and lands of nether Mordington with manorplace and mill. Here ends any Lauder connexion with Edrington. An indirect link was through the new owners, the Lords Mordington, who were descended through the Douglas of Whittinghame family who had intermarried with the Lauders of Bass about Year 1750 The last Lord Mordington was a Jacobite and was forfeited. He died s.p. Uncle did not claim the title and it fell dormant. Edrington Castle it would appear was eventually superseded by Edrington House, the present mansion of that name, built about 1750 presumably by the descendants of Lord Mordington, on the site of the manor of Nether Mordington [see: Timothy Pont s map of Mercia in Blaue s Atlas]. Year 1636 A Great Seal charter dated 13 th September 1636 grants to the Rev. Thomas Ramsay, (of the Iddingtoun family today s Edington, near Chirnside) Minister at the kirk of Foulden, and Helen Kellie his spouse, the town and lands of Nether Mordington, with the manor and mill sometime built upon by the said Thomas etc. Year 1661 Mrs. W.R. Johnson (mentioned above) asserts that early records show that in 1622 a deed was granted by Lord Mordington giving to his brother Joseph Douglas the lands, crofts and tofts with the house of Edrington. She goes on to say that there still remains in the garden fragments of a sundial bearing the inscription Joseph de Mordington Such a transaction does not appear in The Great Seal or in Sasines and I suspect that she must mean Nether Mordington, today called Edrington House, as we know from above that the Edrington castle and estate did not pass to the Douglases until 1661 (with another confirmation on 2 nd August 1662.) When that happened the charter mentions again the town and lands of Nether Mordington, with manor place and mill, built by the now deceased Mr. Thomas Ramsay [d. Sept 1650], once minister of Foulden. Also, the house of Edrington in 1622 was still the castle. Importantly, the sundial mentioned above says of Mordington, not Edrington, and Mrs. Johnson continues that close by Edrington House once stood a flour mill. This is almost certainly the mill of Nether Mordington mentioned in the above charters relating to Nether Mordington with the manor of that name, rebuilt by Thomas Ramsay, and which appears on the stream just below the manor on Pont s map. Year 1800 Mrs. Johnson says of Edrington castle that at the close of the eighteenth century the tower and battlements were substantially intact and H. Drummond Gauld 50 states towards the close of the 18 th century Edrington castle was still four storeys in height, a commanding ruin perched on the pinnacle of a crag clothed with trees. On the western side the castle was inaccessible and was well adapted to stem the torrent on incursion from the English shores of the Tweed.

69 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) said that after the Union [1707] it was suffered to fall into decay. The Old Statistical Account of Scotland 51 mentions Edrington castle, ruins, demands our notice. Year 1892 One hundred years on the Ordnance Gazetter 52 was still referring to Edrington castle as a ruined fortalice. But The Castellated & Domestic Architecture of Scotland from the 12 th to the 18 th Century 53 says that it was by then a mere fragment of an ancient castle; a place of some importance in the Border wars. Later, Sir Herbert Maxwell, Bt., notes: Edrington Castle, opposite Paxton, once a place of great strength and importance, has been quarried away to near ground level. 54. Year 1934 The Sixth Report & Inventory of Monuments & Constructions in the County of Berwick 55 states This castle is situated about three and a half miles west of Berwick, on a rocky bank above the Whitadder. A mere fragment remains, adjoining and incorporated in the farm buildings. Mr. Drummond Gould (1934) laments that the castle has suffered more from the attentions of local vandals than it ever did from the English. Year 1892 By 1892, the year of publication of the abovementioned architectural survey, a Mr. Edward Grey had completed a new house nearby called Cawderstanes, with some cottages also adjoining the castle. Almost certainly his builders have been some of the vandals Mr. Drummond Gould mentions. A sad and sorry end to a Scottish fortress seemingly overlooked today by all but those responsible for the Ordnance Survey, who still mark on their maps Edrington Castle. G.M.S.

79 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) Descendants of Thomas Edingtoun, of that Ilk The earliest Edington I have been able to locate down to 1424 was Thomas Ethingtoun of that Ilk who had a confirmation of his estates about He had a son, of whom we know nothing and who possibly predeceased his father. However, we do know that Thomas's grandson (indicating the missing male) John Edingtoun (in one charter Ethington) of that Ilk was the next to inherit and that he was married to a Beatrix Hume. Next is where I previously became confused. This has now been clarified by the charters I found. John had two sons, David, the eldest, and Thomas. David married an Alison Hume, and they had a son Patrick who seems by all account to be alive and well and residing at Clarabad. He is described as David's son and heir. However, he must have been the only son as he clearly died before his father, and so we then have Thomas Edingtoun of that Ilk inheriting from his brother, David. Thomas we know married Elizabeth Ramsay and a few years afterwards sold the superiority of Edingtoun to her brother for 10,000, and so ended the connection between Edington and the family of that name. As I think I have told you previously, on many 16th and 17th century documents the place has been spelt Idingtoun or Iddingtoun. However, on these earlier charters I have located it is clearly spelt with an 'E' and most importantly several of the transcribers, notably The Great Seal, spell the name ETHINGTOUN. This is identical to your surname (less the 'u' which has been dropped from just about all Scottish surnames and placenames now). I am of the opinion, given what I have seen, that you may be looking in the wrong place for the origins of your surname and that, in fact, you are probably descended from this Ethingtoun/Edington family, whose estates straddled the Whiteadder about 4 miles down the road from here. I understand the Pele Tower there was still almost intact until the middle of the last century (some maps refer to it as a 'castle' but that is incorrect. It was a fortalice). As for Edrington, I have never come across any families in Scotland of this surname. I suspect, as I said before, that it is English. Given Edrington's very close proximity to Clarabad (across the river at one point) I suppose its possible that in the days of King Edgar it may have been part of the Ethingtoun/Edingtoun families lands. But there is no evidence and that is just speculation, a bad thing in genealogy. To this day people consistantly confuse Edrington and Edington and often the Royal Mail also get it wrong. But the Berwick to Duns road has been there in virtually the same place for about 1000 years and there has always been a good road distance between the two estates, separated by the Foulden and Nether Mordington lands, also owned by the Ramsays, who must have seen acquiring the Edingtoun estate as consolidation their holdings.

80 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) Unfortunately, like most of the great pre-union landed families who relied totally upon agriculture for their incomes, they got themselves into very serious financial difficulties in the 17th century, which was littered with wars etc., and started selling up their Berwickshire lands, Foulden to the Wilkies, (merchants from Lanark) and Edingtoun to Sir John Lauder,1st Baronet, another merchantlandowner, who took for his third wife, the daughter of Ramsay of Iddingtoun. Signed on the 1st July and 20th August 1690, a long Deed was entered into between George Ramsay of Iddingtoun and his son and heir William, to sell irredeemably the lands and barony of Idingtoune [Edington] in Berwickshire, to Sir John Lauder, 1st Baronet of Fountainhall 64. Sir John subsequently transferred that property to his eldest son and heir by his third marriage to Margaret Ramsay, George. A.G.Bradley, writing in "The Gateway of Scotland" (1912) states that Sir George Lauder of Edington shot his friend David Spence of West Mains during a quarrel, and then committed suicide by drowning in the river Tweed at Berwick-upon-Tweed. [April 1700]. In the indexes to the "Commissariot of Lauder " Sir George has two Testaments registered: one as George Lauder in Edingtoun: T.98, 6th November 1701, and the second as Sir George Lauder, of Idington dated 2nd October The first Testament was confirmed by Sir George's younger brother Archibald as his executor creditor on 28th October 1701.[Archibald was a ship's surgeon. He died, aged just 25, on 4th February 1704]. The Testament Dative recorded on 2nd October 1705 (CC15/5/7) was given up by Margaret & Elizabeth Lauder, sisters german to the defunct and by Mr.John Fairholm of Balberton, advocate, husband to Margaret, and John Cunningham of Woodhall, husband to Elizabeth, as nearest of kin (Archibald having died and certain matters remaining to be concluded regarding Sir George) and executors dative to the defunct. The cautioner was John McComie, writer in Edinburgh. No other genealogical information therein.

86 Edrington Berwickshire (Lauder-Frost) Questions by Harold Ethington to Greg Lauder-Frost: 1. SirJohn Lauder, of Newington, 1st Baronet of Fountainhall, husband of Margaret Ramsey. He appears to be much older than both Margaret, and Margaret s father, George Ramsey (born in 1633). Do I have this right? Answers: Yes: he was born in 1596 and died 1692, making him 75 years old when he took Margaret Ramsay as his third wife. This was not that abnormal in those days, and in any case he was horribly rich. 2. Thomas Ethington, husband of Elizabeth Ramsay, appears to be much older than Elizabeth. David, brother of Thomas, was born about Elizabeth was born about It all is within range, but stretching a little. OK? Answer: Elizabeth's parents were married on 5th April 1570,and she herself married Thomas in November 1591 making her age at marriage quite normal, possibly about 20 years or younger. As for Thomas, he appears to be about 50 when he married, possibly even older. We don't know, of course, whether this was a second marriage for him. It may have been. Records are not always helpful regarding previous spouses. Thomas was the younger brother. How much younger we don't know, and how many other children there were between David and Thomas we don't know either. There may have been boys who died in infancy or who were imbeciles. There may have been several girls, who are always excluded by law from succession if there are males living. But there is no doubt of the marriage of Thomas and Elizabeth. 3. You show Thomas the elder born about Yet, his estate was confirmed c Could he have been born earlier? Answer: He may have been entailed before the legal age of 25 years. That was common. I have found estates being entailed in infancy. We know that he was alive in David Ethington grants land to his wife Alison Hume. Later, David s brother Thomas inherits the Edington lands since David s son Patrick had died. Are we talking about two different plots of land? One to wife Alison, and one to brother Thomas? Answer: These were life rents. In any case, even if they had been lands, they would only have been feus only for life - they would have been portions within his estate of which he was the superior. Clarabad, for instance, lay within his superiority, indeed he was originally styled 'of Clarabad', but was a separate land with its own title. Feus were hereditary so once feued out if the superior wanted it back he'd have to buy it back. He would still retain the superiority and receive annual land-rents. According to the old Scottish system, if you were styled "of" somewhere, it meant that (1) you were the superior or (2) you had the hereditary feu of those lands from the superior. If you were styled "in" somewhere it normally meant you were the tenant or just resided there. The Ethington Family Organization Page 86

91 Edrington Family (LaMar Kay Edrington) LaMar Kay Edrington Notes on the name EDRINGTON LaMar Kay Edrington, an active Edrington family researcher, lives currently (2004) in LaPoint, Utah. He is a descendant of the Edrington family that settled in the mid 1600 s in the Northern Neck of Virginia. His comments on the name, and the area history of the Adder River Valley near Berwick Scotland follow. There is a book called Scottish Place-Names: Their Study and Significance by W.F.H. Nikolaison (B.I.Batsford LTD, 1976, 4 Fitharding St, W1H CAH London). The author discusses early Scot / English settlement names and traces the etymology of several of them. We are fortunate because in his discussion of the element -tūn and the element -ton, he uses the name of Edrington as an example. He says: Nikolaison Page 25 A clear example of an early name in ington is Edrington which must be compared with the other Berwickshire name of Edrom, analyzed above, for both contain the river-name Adder as their first element, and are located on the river of that name. The spelling Ederington of 1330 A.D. establishes the e of the second syllable of the river-name, and the much earlier Hadryngton of 1095 A.D., provides a glimpse of the sound development of the stem-syllable. The spellings are easily early enough to show Edrington to be the -tūn of the settlers on the river Adder, if such proof were necessary. Note by Kay: A clan of Celts, known as the Scots, came into Northern England about the year 500 A.D. from the land that we now call Northern Ireland. Throughout the years the Vikings, Danes, and Norsemen raided, plundered, and established settlements in what became known as Scots-land. The English started pushing into southern Scotland as early as 750 A.D. There was continual warfare along the border until Scotland gained their independence through the efforts of Robert Bruce in There were many wars between England and Scotland over the years. You will notice the lower-center of the above map a place called Flodden Field, where the Scots were badly defeated in the year The Edringtons were probably there. The river Tweed, of which the Adder is the chief tributary, became a natural borderline between Scotland and England. The Edrington Castle was one of the fortresses against the English and was also a result of the early Feudal system. Hopefully we will find out a lot more about the Edringtons and their castle, and a nearby ruin called the Edrington House. The Scots who lived and fought along the English border were called Borderers. Nikolaison page 73 [In Scotland] as in England, the connective particle ing- is found only with tūn; and just as tūn is slightly later in Scotland than hām, so names ending in The Ethington Family Organization Page 91

92 Edrington Family (LaMar Kay Edrington) ingtūn belong to a later period than those in ingas and ingaham. Once the numerous non-genuine late adaptations like Abington, Newington, Symington and others have been eliminated, there remains a genuine residue of early material in such Berwickshire names as Edington Hadynton 1095 (15 th ), Hoedentum (15 th ), Edingtonam 1095 (15 th )) farm associated with *Ead(d)a ; Edrington Hadryngton 1095 (15 th ) farm associated with the river Adder ; Mersington (so 1291) farm associated with *Mersa or Mersige ; Note by Kay: When the Celtic group (The Scots) came into northern England, they brought with them names that had been with them when they migrated from central Europe (if that is where they indeed came from) 85. Some etymologists think that the river Adder is an outgrowth of the river ODER in central Europe. The name Adder is not English, but Celt/Scottish; the -ing in the middle of our name simply connects us with the last descriptive syllable -ton which is English for town. In Old English it was spelled -tūn and then it became -toune, and then -town, and later, when used in conjunction with a place name it became -ton. Originally, it was sounded: ADDER-ING-TūN, which would mean a people or farm located on the Adder river. So, we went from Adder-ing-tūn to Hadryngton, to Edrington. Think about that. Our name is a thousand years old! Nikolaison page 184: Edrington the ruins of the Edrington Castle are on the left bank of the Whiteadder about five miles from Berwick; Edrington House is on a small tributary of the same river. Nikolaison page 185: both these names (Edrom and Edrington) must have been coined before the distinctive adjectives Black and White became attached to the two tributaries comprising the Adder river. They are now the Whiteadder and the Blackadder rivers. Note by Kay: It s kinda exciting, isn t it? We began as a distinct family (with the name of Edrington) in about 1090 A.D. Other similar sounding names began soon after (like the Edingtons and Ederingtons). On one 85 Coments by Greg Lauder-Frost: The Celts were in England before the Saxons, Danes etc. Also the Picts, who anciently occupied Scotia (Scotland) were also Celts. An Irish clan (obviously of Celtic origin) called the Scots steadily emigrated into western Scotland over numerous centuries and eventually all but exterminated the Picts. What evidence is there that such numbers would have taken a vastly longer sea journey into northern England, and then moved northwards into Scotland? One of the better refences on this subject is Lieut.-Col.Forbes Leslie's The Early Races of Scotland, and Their Monuments (Edinburgh, 1866, 2 volumes). Another, possibly slightly more contentious study, is The Phoenician Origin of Britons - Scots and Anglo-Saxons by the great genius, Professor l.a.waddell, (London, 1925).

93 Edrington Family (LaMar Kay Edrington) old Scottish map made in the 1500 s, the Edrington Castle was mistakenly named the Ederington Castle, and there was a nearby town called Edington and another called Edingtonhill THE BARONS de EDRINGTON When one first reads this short account of the Edrington lineage in the Genealogical History of the Dormant, Abeyant, Forfeited, and Extinct Peerages of the British Empire by Bernard Burke, it is a little bit hard to grasp the significance of what is being told. At least that was the situation in my own case. The meat of the matter is that herein we have a skeleton of literally noble dimensions upon which to assemble or mold a genealogical body. My greatest fear as I began to research the Edrington lineage was that the period between 1100 and 1600 A.D. would be nearly an impossible span of time to follow and document. But I though, at the time, that half of a millennium was better than no millennium at all. This current slice of history and genealogy dealing with our ancestors and heritage is exciting! The more one reads it, the more one reads into it. What follows is my own tentative interpretation of what is says and means. We learn in the first sentence of the main paragraph that: Thomas de Edrington, was appointed, with Richard de Altavipa, in the 6 th King John, bailiff or substitute to Geoffrrey Fitzpiers, then sheriff of the counties of Salop and Stafford. He was afterwards chamberlain to the king and obtained some territorial grants from the crown. 87 John ruled officially from 1199 to 1216 A.D. but held actual power for longer than that because he substituted for years for his brother, Richard the Lion-Hearted, while Richard was away fighting in the Crusades in the Holy Land. Every historian seems to agree on one thing about John: They should have 86 Coments by Greg Lauder-Frost: Nikolaison is just clutching at straws here in all these possibilities. No proof anywhere. He is also quoted mentioning Edrington Castle; and almost at the same time Edrington House, which Kay Edrington states, on page 50 was "a nearby ruin". This too is wrong. Edrington house is not "nearby" any more than my house is, and it has been continually lived in since the late 16th century. 87 Coment by Greg Lauder-Frost: Mr.Edrington quotes Sir Bernard Burke's Dormant, Abeyant, Forefited, and Extinct Peerages of the British Empire (London, 1883) where a family of this surname appears as feudal barons, elevated, briefly, to barons of parliament. Burke is a little over the top in many of his descriptions of people in this publication and they should often be read for interest rather than absolute reliablility. But I would say this: here is clear evidence of a family of this surname in England, and established with lands there. No-one at that time (reign of King John) would have owned lands, especially a feudal barony, unless they were of Norman origin. Very occasionally, as in the Lancaster family, we find Saxon barons still with land, but it is rare. That a Scot of lowly birth supposedly from the very very long Whiteadder districts, could have turned up in that part of England, been accepted, purchased lands and barony etc etc is beyond belief. For Mr.Edrington to make the statement that "there were undoubtedly Edringtons at the battles of of etc etc" is ludicrous. There is much if not almost total doubt unless he can prove otherwise. I suggest that the Edrington surname is or has evolved from a Norman surname and that is where you must trace it. The Ethington Family Organization Page 93

94 Edrington Family (LaMar Kay Edrington) named him John the Cruel. The 6 th year of the reign of John would be the year 1205 A.D. It was in that year, then, that Thomas Edrington was appointed as a bailiff and assistant sheriff of Salop and Stafford counties a position of trust and honor much sought after and quite unlike the modern positions of bailiff and sheriff. Stafford is somewhere near the center of England northwesterly of London and midway between that city and Liverpool on the coast. I assume that the name of the other county, Salop is a misspelling of Shrop, or Shropshire which is the county between Stafford and the country of Wales. The information preceding the appointment of Thomas is doubly interesting to me. It tells us that Thomas is the grandson of Henry de Edrington. Estimating a generation to be about 20 years or so, one can safely say that Lord Henry de Edrington of county Warrick was probably born around 1130/35 A.D. Warrick is just below Stafford and located on the old Roman highway running from London to the West coast. The article reads as though Edrington, county Warrick was a shire or manor of substantial importance in the area. It is evident that Burke, in writing his work on the peerages, had access to various documents that contain additional information regarding the subjects under discussion. In fact, he says on page v of his introduction: I am indebted these same works, however, for providing the basis of this directory and in them, of course, the enquirer will find the detailed information that it is not possible to provide here. This new information, concerning the Edrington habitation in central England at such an early date, has caused me to take another look at the overall sequence of the migration from their beginnings in the Adder Valley to the eventual transplanting of part of the family to the American scene in the mid 1600 s; for the seemingly indisputable fact is that by at least the year 1135 A.D. there is an established Edrington family and presence in the very belly of England. One of the ramifications of that fact is the notion that very shortly after becoming a known family entity called Edrington, (say about 1100 A.D.), there was a movement southward of at least a portion of the newly emerged group. In my mind I had supposed them to have gone southward at a later date, perhaps shortly after 1300 A.D. To me it was like seeing a sign over a doorway that read: Welcome to the Home of the Edringtons but when I knocked a stranger came, shook his head, and replied kindly to my queries: I m sorry, but they don t live here anymore. The fact is no one here ever remembers having seen and Edrington before. I know what you re thinking, about the sigh over the entrance way. Well, there is a comfortable feeling about the sign being there. There is a feeling of belonging to the spot where it hangs. And down the road a ways there is a hill called Edrington, and a village, and a manor, and a farm and maybe a gnarled stump from an old oak tree. Beyond that, near the bend in the river, there is an ancient ruin called by everyone in these parts, the Edrington Castle. It is a pile of rocks now. Old writings tell of the existence of a mill and a fishery near the river, and one supposes that they were also called Edrington. The stranger paused, lowered his head thoughtfully for a moment and then raised it once again and said No, they don t live here anymore, these Edringtons, but they were here once, a long time ago. We have never doubted that. It s like the sign says, mister, Welcome to the Home of the Edringtons. I believe that the Adder Valley was Edringtonville But did the Edringtons of County Warrick leave the border valley so very early? That hardly seems time to get the castle finished. My private estimate for the construction of the castle was between 1150 and Maybe we ll know someday. What I am pretty certain of is that by early in the 1300 s there are no Edrington people living in the Adder Valley. Their spirits might linger there and seep up through the soil occasionally but their bodies have long been gone, south to Warrickshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire, Durham, Lancastershire, York and Westmoreland, and the other counties of central and western England.

95 Edrington Family (LaMar Kay Edrington) When Jimmie Edrington of Brownsville Texas visited the Edrington Castle environs in 1987 he made the acquaintance of the librarian at Duns, who proceeded to send Jimmie a letter at a later date. He (the librarian) had done a little cursory research and was of the opinion that: Unfortunately I can be of limited help. In this area at least, I can trace no usage of the name Edrington as a family name. The name of Edington is fairly common, but this seems to derive from a village of that name near Chirnside. Other than coincidence, there seems to be no connection between the two. Little or nothing remains of the castle, and less has been written about it. The only references, other than passing mention, traced in our small local collection are in Wilson s Imperial Gazetter of Scotland, vol. 1 (late 19 th century, no date) and in Carr s History of Coldingham Priory (1836). I enclose photocopies of both items. I can find no illustrations, old or new, of the castle. (signed) John Luby, ALA Duns Area Librarian 22 Dec 1987 I want to refer now to the second reference listed above: Carr s History of Coldingham Priory, Mr. Luby sent a copy of the three pages dealing with various transactions of the Edrington lands and holdings between 1335 and A.D. The first transaction reads thusly: Has obviously derived its name from its contiguity to the river Whitadder [note by HDE: Current (year 2003) pronunciation by locals is Whit, not White, Adder], which forms the boundary between it and the parish of Hutton. It was one of the most ancient possessions of the monks, who seem to have long retained it in their own keeping, probably on account of the proximity of its fisheries; as no tenant bearing this name occurs in the chartularies. The village, together with the fishing water of Eddermouth, and the mills of Edrington and Berwick, were, by charter, dated 10 th October 1335, bestowed upon William de Pressin, Lord Warden of Jedburgh forest, in reward for his having taken prisoner, Sir Andrew Murray, the regent of Scotland, and confining him in Bamburgh Castle. In 1376 the Edrington lands, now belonging to Robert II, were granted by charter, 27 th June, to John de Roos and John Lyoun. Next they went to Thomas de Knayton and his heirs forever, in reward for his good service. The deed is dated at Westminister, 17 th March About the year 1450 it was granted by James II of Scotland, to Robert Lauder of Bass, who seems to have held it conjointly with the descendant of William de Pressin. There was another transaction on the 13 th of September 1489 and from there the property was owned by a family named Ogilvy from whom, at the close of the 17 th century, it was purchased by John Douglas, D.D., son of Douglas of Parkhead, and brother of Douglas, Lord Mordington Comments by Greg Lauder-Frost: The Ethington Family Organization Page 95

96 Edrington Family (LaMar Kay Edrington) The various surviving cemetery inscriptions photographed by Jimmie Edrington in 1987 probably belong to the Douglas era. One picture is of a weathered sundial beneath which is inscribed Joseph Douglas of Edrington The Douglas family must have survived in the area for a long time because Jimmie took notes from several headstones near Edrington Castle, among them were: In Memory of William Douglas, son of George Douglas, who died July 1796, aged 9 years. Agnes Douglas his wife who died 6 th July 1798 aged 30 years. Late servant of Joseph Douglas of Ederington, who died 1762, age 69 [Regarding] the lands of Edrington in Berwickshire. It is on record that the original pele tower at Edrington was built by Sir Robert Lauder of the Bass (d.may 1311). Over the centuries it was enlarged and eventually became L-shaped. Most of these enlarged Pele Towers were called castles espcecially after enlargement. Mr.Edington's suggestion that it was owned or built by a family called Edrington has no basis in fact whatsoever. The past librarian of Duns is correct when he says that there is no connection between Edrington and Idingtoun, now called Edington, some miles distant. Mr.Luby has supplied page copies of Carr's History of Coldingham Priory. Mr.Carr was an Englishman and his sweeping inaccuracies are very annoying. He mentions the Edrington lands "belonging to King Robert II". Well of course ALL Scottish lands 'belonged' to the King. Under the feudal system he was the ultimate superior from whom all landholders held their lands. Carr mentions the following people as "proprietors" etc: de Pressin, de Knayton, Lord de Roos, and John Lyoun. All of these ENGLISH people had grants from the ENGLISH king of confiscated Scottish lands. Edrington was included. But in Scottish eyes, these were illegal as the lands were stolen by the English. The Great Seal is packed with properties which had changed hands several times on paper because of English invasions and occupations, but it is on record that David granted Edrington, its mill, and the fishing rights on that part of the Whiteadder down to its mouth to the Lauders of Bass and they owned it until the 17th century. This has never ever been in dispute. To suggest, as Carr does, that Robert Lauder of Bass was holding Edrington jointly, in 1450, with "a descendant of de Pressin" is just ridiculous. He adds that a family named Ogilvy also owned Edrington, there is not a trace of this. Just a figment of his imagination. I have covered the Scottish, and therefore legal, chronoligical ownership of Edrington in my article. At an early date the Lauders feued the mill to Adam de Paxton but early in the 14th century he forfeited that feu. Yes, Edrington castle did change hands numerous times during the English-Scots wars. But it always remained in the hands, legally, of the Lauders. Yes, as Carr says, Edrington was returned to the Scottish king but here he speaks of national sovereignty, not actual ownership of the castle and estate. It was not fully destroyed, but was always rebuilt, So that is wrong, and it remained almost fully four stories with battlements until it was taken down for its stone for a local mansion named Cawderstanes, and some nearby cottages, c1890. The Ethington Family Organization Page 96

97 Edrington Family (LaMar Kay Edrington) quoting: I can t resist including the final paragraph of the source from which we have been And finally: The ancient castle of Edrington occupied the summit of a steep craggy bank, overhanging the Whitadder, and was deemed a place of considerable strength and importance. In consequence of its proximity to the border, like the neighboring fortress of Berwick, it served somewhat of the purpose of a shuttlecock, being seldom retained long in the hands of either nation. It was one of the many places in Berwickshire burnt by the Duke of Gloucester s army, in July 1482, but was soon afterwards rebuilt, and fortified by order of the Scottish Parliament. In 1518 its English garrison, under its proprietor, William Pressin, was overpowered by a party of borderers led by Sir David Home of Wedderburn, who afterwards voluntarily resigned it. In 1534, on the cessation of hostilities between the two kingdoms, Henry VIII restored the castle and manor to James V as a proof of the gratitude and friendship which he entertained toward him. A fresh war breaking out, it was recaptured by the English. In 1546, the Scots demanded that their house of Edrington, on the East border, should be immediately restored to them: and, in accordance with a treaty concluded in the Church of Norham, Edward VI delivered up to them the castle, and mill belonging to it, commonly called the Cawmills, with its lands, fisheries and other dependencies. In 1558, on the recommencement of disturbances, the castle was once more taken by the English. Its garrison, consisting of twelve Frenchmen, made such a brave defense, that several of the assailants were slain during the siege. [Note: at the Union of the Crowns, in 1603, James destroyed hundreds of the fortifications along the border. Evidently, Edrington Castle was one of them]. Footnote: They say of Edrington that it is a waste incomplete house, marching with the bounds of Berwick, and as the use hath been, that as often as it was taken in war, it was delivered again at the making of peace. (Holinshead s Scottish Chronicle page 364) In a romantic vale, a little below the ruins of the castle, is said to have stood the cottage of the renowned Tibby Fowler o the Glen the heroine of one of our most popular Scottish songs. [This last quote] sounds like Robert Burns to me. I tried to locate it but I couldn t find it in any of his published works. The lengthy digression above was made because it seemed needful to establish the idea of a new concept that will now prove useful in further research. The concept is that the Edrington family began in the Adder Valley in the 1000 s, left it probably by 1200 A.D., and returned again as knights and nobles of England to put down the continual border uprisings. A case in point is Henry de Edrington who was made a knight of the Bath in the year 1302 and accompanied king Edward I into war against Scotland, wherein he attained so much celebrity that he was summoned to parliament as a Baron on 22 January This is a concept that takes a little doing for me to accept. I remember writing, at one time, that There were undoubtedly Edringtons at the battles of Berwick (1291, Bannockburn (1314), Halidon Hill The Ethington Family Organization Page 97

98 Edrington Family (LaMar Kay Edrington) (1333), and Flodden Field (1513). I still believe that, but must now accept the idea that those Edringtons who were there probably came with the conquering armies of England. They were now English Nobles and Knights returning to their little-remembered origins in service to the King. That idea takes a little effort for me to get used to. It is a hard vision to try to conjure up: Henry de Edrington, Baron, of County Warrick, marching against Berwick on Tweed with King Edward I ( who was later to bear the title The Hammer of the North ) and participating in the siege of Berwick and its consequent aftermath, the putting to the sword of the 5,000 Scottish survivors. My Scots genes take some satisfaction in that my g-g-g-grandfather, James Edrington, and his brothers and relatives of Virginia, South Carolina and Kentucky, had the wisdom to fight against, and humble, the English in the American War for Independence 89. For some reason or other I prefer my Americanized Scots genes. But, in my present condition I ll take any kind I can get. Back to the era of the Baron de Edrington. We were discussing Thomas de Edrington when I digressed. In the 15 th year of the reign of King John (1214 A.D.) the king evidently had enough confidence in his chamberlain to send him, along with one Ralph Fitz-Nicholas, on a secret mission to enlist the help of the Mohammedan King of Africa and Spain in putting down the enemies of the throne of England. His enemies were his own nobles. This was also the time that he legendary Robin Hood was shooting arrows at the king s men. The chamberlain to the King was a member of the Royal Household of England, whose job it was to oversee and conduct the business of the monarch and to supervise all branches of court life, including the activities of the household. They did not openly share in the power of government, but, because of their position near the seat of it, often had influence beyond their calling. The fact that King John sent him on a secret mission to the continent would indicate that he was more than a medieval nanny. Another timely point of interest is that his secret trip for King John was just one year before the king was forced by the barons to sign the Magna Carta (June 15, 1215). I don t remember my history very well, but his trip to Spain to woo the Mohammedan monarch, Admiralius Marmelius, must not have been successful. It seems likely, as the supervisor of the king s business and of royal protocol, that Thomas was probably involved with the famous event of 1215 the signing of the Great Charter which put the king under the law, curbed his powers, and introduced many of the important provisions of democracy that eventually found their way into our own system of government; jury trial by one s peers, no taxation without representation, due process, etc. That famous event took place at Runymede, a meadow alongside the river Thames, southwest of London. 89 Comment by Greg Lauder-Fost: Mr.Edrington speaks of the American war of Independence, which we here prefer to correctly name the American Revolution. He also talks about fighting the English in it. But it was the BRITISH the Americans were fighting, and I can give him a long list of SCOTTISH loyalists, notably the Rutherfords, who had extensive plantataions and properties in the American colonies who remained loyal to the Crown and were, as a result, forfeited of their properties by the revolutionary government. The Ethington Family Organization Page 98

99 Edrington Family (LaMar Kay Edrington) Thomas de Edrington married Roese de Cockfield, died in the latter end of John s reign (1216), and was succeeded by his son Giles de Edrington who, in the 35 th year of the reign of Henry III (1251) was one of the justices itinerant for the city of London, and the next was constituted one of the justices of the court of Common Pleas: He was likewise one of the justices of Assize for the county Warrick, from the 34 th to the 53 rd of the same reign ( ) inclusive. This learned person was a munificent benefactor to the church. I did a little checking concerning some of the phrases used in the above paragraph. Prior to the signing of the Magna Carta, criminal cases brought against subjects of the crown could only be tried at Westminister or London or by the judges traveling out into the counties ( Circuit judges). It could take them up to 7 years before they might handle a case. Magna Carta provided for judges to handle certain writs, yearly, within each county. These courts of Assize grew and eventually became the pattern of court systems that developed in colonial America. Upon the death of Thomas, his son Henry de Edrington succeeded him and married Maud, one of the daughters and eventual co-heiresses of, Roger de Somert, Baron of Dudley, and also one of the coheirs of Nichols daughter and co-heir of Hugh Albini, Earl of Arundel. One gets the idea that not only was Henry a respected man of means but his wife was in line to inherit a considerable fortune herself. He must have been a practical, upward-mobile type of person. The Earls were at the top of the peerage ladder and the Barons at the bottom and so by marrying the daughter of the Earl of Arundel Henry probably assured himself a greater degree of nobility, and especially when she inherited the lands alluded to above. It was the amount of landholdings that distinguished between the lesser barons and the greater ones. Henry died in the 10 th year of the reign of Edward I (which computes to Note: This was the second King Edward 1 st, who reigned from 1272 to 1307). Henry was succeeded by his son Henry de Edrington who, in the 30 th year of the reign of Edward I (1302) inherited his mother s lands upon her decease. In four years afterwards he was made a knight of the Bath. He then attended Prince Edward in the expedition made into Scotland, wherein he attained so much celebrity that he was summoned to parliament as a Baron on the 22 nd of January I get the message that this particular Henry was a pretty important and well-to-do man who probably left a good paper trail behind him that we can someday follow. His Lordship (Get That!) married Joane, daughter and co-heir of Sir Thomas de Wolvey, of Wolvey, county Warwick. Back to the Barons de Edrington. When Henry died, he left his son, Giles, (Lord Edrington), who, not appearing in the 19 th year of Edward III (1346) to receive the honour of knighthood, obtained a pardon for that omission. The article then goes on to state that Lord Edrington had but one summons, and his descendants none. Giles (Lord Edrington) was succeeded by his son, Giles de Edrington. We are left to wonder a bit about Giles and his immediate family and descendents for the story leaps ahead to his great grandson, Thomas Edrington, who lived in the reign of Henry VI. That would compute to the date between 1422 and 1461 A.D. I submit that this chronology of Edringtons begins in the middle of the 12 th century, around 1150 A.D. and continues down to at least 1451 A.D., and probably beyond. Recently my research has taken me into the parish registers of Lancastershire and in one of them was the earliest date that I have found as yet: Elizabeth, daughter of Elizabeth Edrington de Holme, cod.

100 Edrington Family (LaMar Kay Edrington) within Ye said Parish Since the day ninegth of March [FHL # 496,809 SLC] The point is, there is not a great distance of time between the birth of someone like Elizabeth Edrington de Holme (1550?) and the death earlier of Thomas Edrington in the period And I think that what that says to us is that the Edrington history, the whole 1,000 year of it, is within our grasp. My psyche makes me refer to it as the Edrington history, but anyone can erase that name and replace it with Edrenton, Ethington, Etherington, Hetherington or a host of others. It is within our grasp to reach back a thousand years and make connections all along the way. It is just a matter of how much time, funds, and effort we want to put into it. Jimmie Edrington of Georgetown, Texas, went to Scotland back in 1987 and we are indebted to him for much of what is written herein.

In 1558 the parishes of England were required by law to start keeping record of all births, marriages, and deaths. That is not to say that there were not records older than that date, nor that all parishes obeyed, nor, that all have been preserved. There is a good back-up record that was kept after 1598, called The Bishop s Transcript, or BT for short. One last point. Anyone who works in Edrington genealogical research cannot help but get bewildered when all of the derivatives melt in and out of one another and start to confuse things. By that I mean the Eddingtons, Etheringtons, Hethringtson, Edrentons, Ethingtons, Edgingtons, etc. And at this point we do not know who for sure who, when, nor where one of us might have derived from the others. And it doesn t matter. I noticed that during the 300 years of the particular line of the Edrington nobility that this paper discusses, the spelling of the surname remains constant. I wonder if that will hold up when we get on parallel lines. In terms of what we have run into on the American colonial scene, that is very unusual. And one finds at least as many variations of the name in parish records of England between, say, 1550 to modern day. At long last we ll close this little report. All of us need to keep sharing what we have and perhaps someday we can establish an Edrington data and dissemination system that will provide a service to any descendent of the Adder River Valley of Scotland who cares to admit that that is where they came from. - LaMar Kay Edrington 14 Feb 1992 The Ethington Family Organization Page 100

101 Correspondence, Nicolaisen : H. Ethington Saturday, April 12, 1997 Mr. W.F.H. (Bill) Nicolaisen 75 Middleton Circle Bridge of Don Aberdeen, Scotland AB 228LF telephone: (home) (office) Dear Mr. Nicolaisen, My name is Harold Ethington, and I am the president of the Ethington Family Organization. For more than 60 years we, as a family, have been searching for our immigrant ancestor, who appears to have come from Scotland or England to Virginia in the 1600 s or early 1700 s. We have never made a connection to England or Scotland, but many of our family members have seen your work on early Scottish place names. Because of this, I have just completed a study of our family names and their appearance in early UK records. The results are quite interesting, and my purpose in writing to you now is to solicit your help in understanding just what we have found. I realize that you are not a genealogical researcher, but hope that your experience with early place names may give us some direction to go in finding our immigrant ancestor. The more we know about conditions during those early years, the better chance we have of making our connection to our place of origin. The results of our search are laid out in several reports that are each fully described in the following pages. There were almost 3,000 data points collected from parish baptisms, confirmations, marriages, and deaths for the years These events have all been made available by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ( The Mormon Church ), as they have filmed and computerized the original records found in England and Scotland. I have used other computer techniques to sort, and analyze the data in several different ways. I realize that you are now working on another book, but hope that you can take a few moments to review these materials, and perhaps give us at least your impression of them, and where they might take us. Please feel free to keep all that I am sending, and use it in any way you may see fit. If you find that this type of analysis could be helpful to you in your other work, I would be most willing to do what I could for you, in exchange for your help with our family research. Your daughter Birgit was most helpful in our efforts to locate you. I found her name on the Internet, at the University of Binghamton in New York, and it was she who told my of your present address. Thank you for your years of thought and effort in helping people like us to understand the past of Scotland. As we look to that country, and find that it may be the place of our beginnings, your work becomes even more valuable. Hoping to hear from you soon, I am The Ethington Family Organization Page 101

103 Correspondence, Nicolaisen : H. Ethington University of Aberdeen Department of English King s College Aberdeen AB242UB Scotland Telephone fax Head of Department: Professor George Watson April 22, 1997 Dear Mr. Ethington, Thank you very much for your letter and the materials concerning your genealogical research. As you quite rightly say, I am not a genealogist, and my comments are therefore based largely on what I know about place names. As far as Scotland is concerned, the place names Edington and Edrington, although both occur in Berwickshire, are completely separate. The first [Edington] contains a personal name and the second [Edrington] a river name as its first element. Edington is in the parish of Chirnside, and Edrington is the parish of Mordington. I enclose photocopies of two pages from a PhD dissertation of 19xx in Edinbgh University by May G. Williamson on the Non-Celtic Place-names of the Border Counties. This is the best and most detailed study we have, and I used it extensively in my book. As you can see, Edington occurs as a personal name as early at 1182 (is a copy of 1436), in the Coldstream Chaulus. My hunch would be that, unless you have definite proof in your own family history of the forms Edington and Edrington alternating, that the two surnames are not related and should therefore be kept separate. On the other hand, you should, of course, take the English place names Edington into account. As you can see from the page from Eilnt Ekorall s Concise Oxford Dictionary of English Place Names (4 th edition) these occur in Northumberland, Somerset and Wiltshire. Whether your ultimate ancestor came from one of these places or from Berwickshire depends very much on any hints you may have in your own family tradition or records as to the genealogical origin of your family. The name itself will unfortunately not tell you this. This is just a quick and basic reply. Please do not hesitate to contact one again if you have any more specific queries. Naturally, it would be easier for me to help you if your family name turned out to be of Scottish derivation but we mustn t jump the gun. Good luck in your research! Yours Sincerely, (signed) The Ethington Family Organization Page 103

105 Correspondence, Nicolaisen : H. Ethington Prof. W.F.H. Nicolaisen PS For the sake of argument, I have assumed that Ethington is a form of Edington. Does your family history bear that out, or do we have to consider two different names here too? Sunday, May 11, 1997 Mr. W.F.H. (Bill) Nicolaisen 75 Middleton Circle Bridge of Don Aberdeen, Scotland AB 228LF telephone: (home) (office) Dear Mr. Nicolaisen, I have received your letter dated April 22, 1997, and appreciate your comments and suggestions. I had not made the distinction between Edington, and Edrington in my reading, and now can see that one is clearly built on a personal name, while the other derives from the river Adder. You have asked questions about the alternate usages of the name here, inquiring if the Edr is interchanged with the Eding. I have made a brief study of early writings, and have found the following (individuals will be numbered for clarity): 1743 Virginia: William Earington-1 allowed for one days attendance 1747 Virginia: William Eatherton-1 is allowed for two days attendance 1755 Virginia: William Atherington-1 tithe on road crew 1769 Virginia: John Etherington-2 appointed overseer of the road 1769 Virginia: William Edinton-1 notices a dark gray horse taken up 1782 Virginia: William Etherton-1 on tax roll 1783 Virginia: John Edinton-2 on tax roll 1783 Virginia: Joseph Edinton-3 on tax roll 1784 Virginia: Joseph Etherton-3 on tax roll 1785 Virginia: Joseph Edrington-3 on tax roll 1786 Virginia: William Etherton Jr.-4 on tax roll 1787 Virginia: Joseph Etherton-3 on tax roll 1788 Virginia: Joseph Etherton-3 on tax roll etc. Eatherton etc. Eatherton Etherton Eatherton Eatherton Eatherton Atherton Atherton Eatherton In addition to the above references from the Virginia Tax rolls, I have the following documents: The Ethington Family Organization Page 105

Letter from Dept. of Interior dated April 20, 1881: About the year 1840, Susan Etherington or Eatherton or Edenton, widow of John Etherington, a soldier of the Revolutionary War It appears to me that by the early 1700 s, at least in this country, the distinction between Edrington, and Edington, had been lost. The name was spelled phonetically, and sometimes a th was sounded as a d. Sometimes a rolled d came out on paper as..dr. I don t see any pattern that could explain family origin by spelling of the last name. However, the Christopher Edrington family of early Virginia has maintained that spelling consistently through the years. Quite honestly, I have considered spelling to be the least important of the three most used identifiers in genealogy: (1) location, (2) time period, and (3) surrounding family given names. Up until about 1920, the spellings changed as often as did the clerk recording the events. My own dad, in the 1920 census is shown as Roy Etherington. Perhaps in Scotland the spellings were more reliable, and can be shown to have genealogical value. Here, it has been only an indicator of what could be. I don t want to burden you in any way, but if you see any hope of using American Spellings to lead us to Scottish places, your views would be appreciated. One more thing -- if you feel that the book I mailed to you has any value, would you be so kind as to you place it in an accessible location (library, institution, genealogical society) in your area where it may be used by others? Thanking you again for your time, I am Sincerely yours, Harold D. Ethington The Ethington Family Organization Page 106

107 Correspondence, Nicolaisen : H. Ethington May 26, 1997 Prof. W. Nicolaisen Dear Mr. Ethington, Thank you very much for your letter and enclosures. It certainly looks as if r-forms dr less interchange in the several spelling sequences you quote. Nevertheless, it may be useful to keep an eye on the earliest spelling of a name in genealogy. There might possibly be more convincing and persuasive than later variations. In general, you are, however, quite wise to pay more attention to other factors than spelling. It has occurred to me that you may find it helpful to contact the editor of the projected [sp?] Dictionary of American Surnames: Mr. Patrick Hanks, Oxford University Press, Wilfon St., Oxford OX2 GDP, England (Tel ; Fax: ). As you suggest, I will give the file you sent me to the local Genealogy Advice Bureau. With best regards, Yours Sincerely, W. Nicolaisen The Ethington Family Organization Page 107

109 Correspondence, Nicolaisen : H.

Your comments were most helpful, and I have used them many times in my research since. I have just returned from the UK, where I was able to obtain 13 DNA samples from Ethington/Hetherington/Edington etc. men for evaluation of relatedness. We find that a Hetherington from Carlisle is related to the early American Edrington family, and that an Edington from Scotland is related to an Etherington from York! We see that the name is truly a place name, and many unrelated individuals carry it. You were kind enough to enclose two pages from May G. Williamson's work "Non-Celtic Place Names of the Border Countries". There are many abbreviations contained therein, and I find that I need more of the pages to understand the abbreviations and other references. Would it be possible to obtain a a complete copy of May's work? Also, is she available at all? I would very much like to talk with her. While in the UK I thought about contacting you, but then realized that I needed all the time I could get to gather the DNA samples. Perhaps on the next trip we will be able to meet. Hoping you, or a librarian at the University, can help me with this request, I remain, Sincerely, Harold D. Ethington PS: You may view our DNA report at The Ethington Family Organization Page 109

I don't think it would be possible to purchase Dr. Williamson's thesis but I would certainly be glad to help out with some of the abbreviations. On the other hand, it has occurred to me that you may like to get in touch with Dr. Williamson yourself in order to cut out the middleman. She is an elderly lady now but still very active and would, I am sure, be pleased to hear from somebody who has found her work useful. Her address is: Dr. May G.Williamson, 15 Falcon Road West Edinburgh.EH10 4AD It might also interest you that a student has recently completed a PhD thesis on "Germanic Place Names in Southern Scotland". Her final xamination has not yet taken place, and I cannot give you further details at this point, but will let you know when the process has been completed.

111 Correspondence, Williamson : H. Ethington PhD Dissertation By May G. Williamson c. 1950? Page 7 III. OE ingtūn Names ending in ingtūn belong to a later period than those in ingas and ingahām [What are the years of the two periods mentioned?]. There is no trace, in the Scottish area, of a genitive plural ending between ing and tūn [Plural possessive? What do you mean with between?]. The base of most of these formations is an OE [Old English?] personal name. The sense of ing may be simply genitival or possessive. BWK. EDINGTON (Chrn): (75, 11 J): Hadynton, 1095 (15 th ) ESC; Hōēdentun, (15 th ) ib; Edingtonam (acc), 1095 (15 th ) ib; -ton, 1465 HMC (Var. Coll. v); Edintun (P), LSMM; Edynton (P), 1182 (1434) Cdstr, 1296 CDS. The first two spellings are dubious and may have been influenced by Haddington (E. Lth). A pers. n. [personal noun?] Ead(d)a might be the base of the forms in ing: cf. Addington Bk, (DEPN, 2) A~Nth.(PN Nth., 177). EDRINGTON (Mrd.): (75, 13 K): Hadryngton, 1095 (15 th ) ESC; Hōēdrington, (15 th ) ib; Edringtoun, 1309 RC; 1328 Rot. Scac; Ederington, 1330 Rot. Scac. The first two spellings are to be compared to the first two above [which two to which two?]. The vowels are similar. The first element of the compound is OE aēdre, the original name of the Whiteadder on which Edrington is situated. OE aēdringtūn is the farm of the settlers by the Adder or, the farm by the Adder. A similar example of a river-name with ingtūn is Sinnington (PNYNR., 76). (end of this dissertation section) The Ethington Family Organization Page 111

112 Correspondence, Williamson : H. Ethington Wednesday 14 Jan 2004 Dr. May G. Williamson 15 Falcon Road West Edinburgh.EH10 4AD UK Dear Dr. Williamson, In April of 1997 I wrote to Dr. William Nicolaisen of the University of Aberdeen asking for help in understanding the source and origin of our family surname, Ethington. Dr. Nicolaisen was kind enough to respond with a number of good suggestions and comments, among which was a reference to your PhD dissertation Non-Celtic Place-names of the Border Counties. He included two pages from your dissertation that delt directly with your work on OE ington (page 7, III. OE ingtun). I have read, and re-read many times what you have written about our family name, and appreciate so very much your diligence and hard work at uncovering the clues from the past. Last October, I, my sister Pat and her husband Doug Beadle were able to spend 2 weeks in England and Scotland. We were there with a specific purpose to find Ethington men, however they spelled the name, who would give us a DNA sample for testing of your theory that the name is connected with the farm of the settlers by the Adder. We drove first to the town of Carlisle on the western edge of the border, then worked our way east to Newcastle, Berwick (Edrington), then up to Edinbourgh, back down through Berwick (Edrington again), to York, and finally Surry. In all, 12 men gave us samples, and we have now processed them at the lab here in Salt Lake City Utah. We found a direct connection between one Donald Hetherington of Carlisle, and the early Virginia Edrington family. We also found that Harry Michael Etherington of York is closely related to John Edington of Dunbar Scotland. The other 9 men were totally unrelated, either to us or to each other. Clear evidence that the name is a location name, and that many unrelated persons took the name from the Adder river area where they lived. You were right. With this knowledge, we wish to understand more about the times and events that led to persons leaving Scotland and migrating to the US. I find that I am not familiar with many of the abbreviations used in your work, and ask your help in clarifying them. In addition, judging from the two pages I have, I would greatly like to have a copy of your complete work in order to put all things in context. Is there any way I could get a complete copy? Of course, I am willing to pay all costs. Also, we would greatly appreciate any comments or additional insights you may have gained in the past years about the Edrington area, and the further use of the name. We realize that we cannot limit our search to only the Adder river valley, but must consider all areas. We will continue to DNA test until we find a connection for our American family, then trace that person back to the 1700 s (our apparent arrival date in the US) to find a potential common ancestor.

113 Correspondence, Williamson : H. Ethington Please know that your work continues to live and inspire. I too write, and have learned that you seldom know who has read your work, and how they were affected. Here at least, is one response from a grateful student. I am including two documents for your library. The first is my report on the DNA tests, and the second is a paper written by Greg Lauder-Frost, an historian living within a mile of the Edrington fortified house on the Adder river, and close to the Edrington oat mill. Greg is an excellent scholar, and I think you will appreciate his work. I hope this finds you in good health and enjoying life. A google search (do you have ?) shows your professional activities over many years. I hope I can leave something similar as a legacy. Thank you for your help. This is my life s work (after making a living!), and both my sister and I have spent well over 40 years trying to understand our roots. Please know that we appreciate all you have done to help, even without knowing. Hope to hear from you soon. My address appears at the top, and either that or regular mail would be just fine. Also, I can see that it would be most interesting to talk with you, if you feel comfortable including you telephone number. Cc: Dr. Nicolaisen Sincerely, Harold D.

114 Correspondence, Williamson : H. Ethington Date: 23 Jan 2004 May G. Williamson 15 Falcon Road West Edinburgh Scotland EH10 4AD UK Harold D. Ethington Dear Mr. Ethington What a delightful surprise was the package from you this morning! Sorry that I have to reply in this old-fashioned way I gave my computer to a friend who will cope with it better than I. At 85 I am in poor health and certainly doing no more research! There are two copies of my thesis extant. The University Library has to have one and the other is in the School of Scottish Studies, 27 George Square EH 89LD but it was in the Department of Scottish Place Names and when the director, Ian Fraser, retired the department seemed to be abandoned. I was puzzled by the intrusive R in your name, or rather by the lack of it in the commonest forms, for of course it is a place name surname based on the River Adder (Whitadder, Blackadder). Did you discover there was a former University Principal called Hetherington? (Sir Hector , Glasgow). I am afraid I am not into family history except for oral tradition conveyed to me by my grandmother. Her mother had told her that her grandmother remembered as a child being sent out with gifts of food for the soldiers returning from Culloden [sp?] to avoid raids on henhouses etc. I do not know to what abbreviations you are referring unless those of the counties which existed at the time of compiling my thesis: Bwk (Berwickshire), Rxb (Roxburyshire, no longer a unit), SLK (Selkirkshire), and DMF (Dumfriesshire, now Dumfries and Galloway). Let me know if there are other unexplained forms. With all good wishes, May G. Williamson The Ethington Family Organization Page 114

115 Correspondence, Williamson : H. Ethington Sunday 8 Feb 2004 May G. Williamson 15 Falcon Road West Edinburgh EH10 4AD UK Dear Dr. Williamson, Thank you for your most welcome letter of January 23 rd. I am glad that you got the package, and found it (at least) somewhat interesting. I have transcribed your comments about the Ethington name into a document, and printed it off for you. I have also printed a second copy where I have highlighted the abbreviations (yellow) that I do not understand, and have added some questions regarding content (red). I hope this is not too much bother for you I understand that you have laid this to rest years and years ago but whatever help you could add to clarify these items would be much appreciated. Also, could you let me know the official title of your thesis? It would help me as I correspond with the various archives regarding it. Speaking of that, you mention that the university library has to have one [copy] but you didn t mention which university. Is it the University of Aberdeen, where Prof. Nicolaisen taught? If so, I have the address here. Eighty five! For some reason I thought that you were about my same age (59 now). You can see that I have estimated the date of your thesis at c Anywhere near correct? Looking forward to hearing from you again. Again, I hope this is not too much bother for you. Who else could ever tell us these things? Thank you so much. Sincerely, Harold D.

116 Correspondence, Williamson : H. Ethington Date: 18 th Feb 2004 May G. Williamson 15 Falcon Road West Edinburgh Scotland EH10 4AD UK Harold D. Ethington Dear Mr. Ethington, Please excuse the informality of the approach: Since I gave my lap-top computer to a friend I have become unwilling to write more than is strictly necessary. I am also far from well and everything is an effort. But I am delighted and flattered by your interest. Now, to your questions. My PhD Thesis The non-celtic Place-names of the Scottish Border Counties was submitted in 1942, and a copy, as legally required, deposited in the library of the University of Edinburgh. A second copy, which was mine to dispose of, I gave to the Deaprtment of Scottish Place-names in the School of Scottish Studies in 27 George Square. It was wartime in and so I was forced to work solely from mag s as any attempt to visit sites might have resulted in my being arrested as a suspected spy! I used the ordnance survey 1 to the mile (now long out of print), the number indicating the section or location of places is made by numbers along the top of each sheet and letters down the sides (the national grid was far in the future). The only model I had was the work of the English Place-name society s published volumes. They were based on parishes, a method I followed, but it is so long ago that the abbreviations very often no longer convey anything to me except a few such as Codstr (Coldstream) and Chrn (Chirnside). As to the sources of early spellings such as ROT. SCAC. I cannot for the life of me recall what they were, but I think most of the material came from charters and land grants to various abbeys. I rather think they are all detailed in the opening pages of my thesis. The abbreviation 15 th is of course 15 th century. Sorry to be so unhelpful. I am not able to go to George Square to consult the original as it is in a room upstairs. With all good wishes, Yours sincerely, May G. Williamson The Ethington Family Organization Page 116

164 Addendum #2 December 2003 England, Scotland Research Trip Appendix B, Report Addendum # 2 Research conducted in England and Scotland during September and October 2003 on 11 men has identified an English connection for the American Edrington family, and shown that an Edrington man from Scotland is from the same family as an Etherington man from York. No British connection was found for the American Culpeper / Spotsylvania Ethington family. Background Over 100 years of research have failed to yield the British ancestry for the American Ethington family. DNA testing started in 2002 on American Ethington men has clarified our understanding of the American family, and with this knowledge it was determined that we had enough information to begin research in the British Isles. The northern part of England, and the southern part of Scotland (known as The Borders ) were chosen as the beginning point for our work because of the following reasons: 1. Family tradition has consistently held that the Ethingtons are a Scottish family. Yet, the name appears to have English origins. 2. Work done by Professor William F. H. (Bill) Nicolaisen of the University of Aberdeen, May G. Williamson of Edinburgh University, and others, points to the Adder River valley on the English / Scottish border near Berwick as the probable origin of the name Etherington (various spellings) Studies by the Ethington Family Organization in April of 1997 centered on the geographic distribution of Ethington surnames from 1550 to 1800 showed a predominance of occurrence in the northern counties of England, and the southern counties of Scotland. Again, the Borders area. 4. Leila Ethington, wife of Gilbert Brian Ethington of Salt Lake City Utah now deceased, worked for many years on Ethington genealogy during the 1930 s and 90 Work by these two scholars appears at the end of this addendum as appendix A and appendix B.

165 Appendix B, Report Addendum # s. She relates that one night she dreamed that she was in a car with George Floyd Ethington, her father-in-law, and other Ethington family members, and that they were headed southwest from London for their research. She recalls the thought coming to her mind that they needed to turn the car around and head north, towards Scotland, where they would find the records and information they wanted. They did so, but she retains no memory of what happened thereafter. 5. Parish records of Haddington, East Lothian, Scotland (borders area) were found to contain several of the few references to the name spelled as Ethington between 1500 and Author George MacDonald Fraser in his history of the Borders area of Scotland and England 91 identifies the Hetherington family as one of the 100 or so reiving or riding families of that area who, from 1350 to 1620 lived by theft, murder, plundering, and extortion in that lawless area. The Hetheringtons (Mr. MacDonald s wife is one) were especially adept at blackmail in those times, and they appear often in the written record. Because of this recorded activity, we felt that we had to make a special effort in that area. Procedure We (my sister, Patricia Ethington Beadle, her husband Doug, and I) arrived in Carlisle, Cumbria, Northern England the evening of Saturday 20 September After obtaining lodging, we used the local telephone book to find Ethington related names, and began calling. The process was to first identify ourselves as Ethington family members in England researching our family history, and then ask if we could visit the person in their home to talk about genealogy. All of the people we spoke with were gracious, but it took about 20 calls before Eva Errington agreed to let us let us come to her home. We found this pattern (20 calls to 1 visit) to hold true throughout the two weeks we were making contacts. After visiting with Eva for about 30 minutes, we described our work with DNA in America and asked if she had a male relative who might want to participate. She showed interest in the program, and suggested that her brother, who lived with her, would be willing to give us a sample. After obtaining as much of her lineage as possible, we left a kit with her and departed. Over the next nine days we were able to work with 13 different men and obtain DNA samples, or the promise thereof from 11. Several were unable to meet with us, but said they would participate through the mail. Our route of travel was: Gatwick, Carlisle, New Castle, 91 MacDonald, George Fraser.
