HAYHURST Surname

_______________________

According to Name Origin Research © 1980, HAYHURST is surname of Anglo-Saxon origin and is a topographic surname. The name comes from someone who lives near woodland located at a high elevation or near a hedge or enclosure made of trees on a hill. The oldest HAYHURST Seal can be traced back to the parish of Ribchester, County Lancashire, England before the Norman Conquest in 1066. Ribchester is a village and civil parish within the Ribble Valley district of Lancashire, England. It lies on the banks of the River Ribble, 6 miles northwest of Blackburn and 12 miles east of Preston. The village has a long history with evidence of Bronze Age beginnings. It is well known as a significant Roman site being the location of a Roman cavalry fort called Bremetennacum.

The second element of the name derives from the Olde English pre 7^th Century "hyrst" (Middle English "hurst"), knoll, hillock, wooded hill, and the first element may be either the Olde English "haeg", enclosure, "heah", high, or "heg", hay. Topographical surnames were among the earliest created, since both natural and man-made features in the landscape provided easily recognizable distinguishing names in the small communities of the Middle Ages.

Early examples of the surname include Thomas de Heyhurst (Sussex, 1327). In 1571, one Lawrence Hayhurst, of Ribhester, was entered in the Lancashire Wills Records held at Richmond. A Coat of Arms granted to the Hayhurst family of Parkhead, Lancashire, is a silver shield, having an azure chevron charged with a golden sun between three hay-rakes proper.

The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Thomas de Hayhurst, which was dated 1246, witness in the "Assize Court Rolls of Lancashire," during the reign of King Henry III, known as "The Frenchman," 1216-1272. Roger de Linton can be found in these same rolls, but the two family are connected in same court cases.

Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.
