Early Origins of the Huster family

The surname Huster was first found in Cheshire where they held a family seat as Lords of the Manor. The Saxon influence of English history diminished after the Battle of Hastings in 1066. The language of the courts was French for the next three centuries and the Norman ambience prevailed. But Saxon surnames survived and the family name was first referenced in the year 1327 when Richard le Heustere held estates in Salop, south east of Cheshire. Later Richard moved to Staffordshire in 1332.
