 England Early Origins of the Scattergood familyThe surname Scattergood was first found in Yorkshire where they held a family seat as Lords of the Manor. The family name was first referenced in the year 1219 when Henry Skattergot held estates in that shire. 1 The same source claims the name literally the name means "'scatter goods', a nickname for a spendthrift or, possibly, for a philanthropist."

The British first settled the British West Indies around 1604. They made many attempts but failed in some to establish settlements on the Islands including Saint Lucia and Grenada. By 1627 they had managed to establish settlements on St. Kitts (St. Christopher) and Barbados, but by 1641 the Spanish had moved in and destroyed some of these including those at Providence Island. The British continued to expand the settlements including setting the First Federation in the British West Indies by 1674; some of the islands include Barbados, Bermuda, Cayman Island, Turks and Caicos, Jamaica and Belize then known as British Honduras. By the 1960's many of the islands became independent after the West Indies Federation which existed from 1958 to 1962 failed due to internal political conflicts. After this a number of Eastern Caribbean islands formed a free association. 5Scattergood Settlers in West Indies in the 17th Century- Thomas Scattergood, who arrived in Jamaica in 1675
