When did the Hayburn family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Hayburn family history? The ancestors of the name Hayburn come from the proud Boernician clans of the Scottish-English border region. The Hayburn family lived in Durham but moved northward in 1329 to Chillingham in Northumberland, where they lived in the village of Hebburn in the parish of Chillingham. Spelling rules had not yet evolved in medieval Scotland, some names dating from that era often appear many different ways. Some spelling variations of Hayburn include Heighborne, Haybourne, Haybourn, Haybirn, Haybyrne, Heighburn, Heighbyrne, Heighbirn, Hepboyrne, Hepbirn, Hepbyrne, Hepburn, Heighbourne, Heyburn, Hebborne, Hebbourne, Hebbirn, Hebbyrne, Hebboorne and many more. First found in Northumberland. Thomas de Heburn was on record in the Assize Rolls for that county in 1279. They prospered here from 1271 until the 18th century, when the family line ended with an heiress. Adam de Hepburn (or perhaps de Hylburne) was the first of the line. One version of the tale goes that Hepburn was a prisoner of the Earl of March, who freed him and granted him lands for 'good and faithful service' after he saved the Earl's life from a feral (wild) horse. These lands were in East Lothian and the family spent the next several centuries aggressively acquiring new lands. This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Hayburn research.

The Boernician-Scottish people who came to North America were often nearly penniless when they arrived, and brought very few personal effects with them. Much Scottish heritage was lost in the process, and it is only this century that highland games, Clan societies, and other patriotic Scottish organizations have helped the ancestors of Scots to rediscover their national legacy. Hayburns were some of the first of the immigrants to arrive in North America: Hayburn Settlers in the United States in the 19th Century
