Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Brandyn family history? The ancestors of the Brandyn surname lived among the ancient Anglo-Saxon culture. The name comes from when they lived in one of the settlements named Brandon in Durham, Norfolk, Suffolk, or Warwickshire, or in Brundon in Essex.Before English spelling was standardized a few hundred years ago, spelling variations of names were a common occurrence. Elements of Latin, French and other languages became incorporated into English through the Middle Ages, and name spellings changed even among the literate. The variations of the surname Brandyn include Brandon, Branden, Brandan and others. First found in Suffolk where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.

A great wave of immigration to the New World was the result of the enormous political and religious disarray that struck England at that time. Families left for the New World in extremely large numbers. The long journey was the end of many immigrants and many more arrived sick and starving. Still, those who made it were rewarded with an opportunity far greater than they had known at home in England. These emigrant families went on to make significant contributions to these emerging colonies in which they settled. Some of the first North American settlers carried this name or one of its variants: Jacob Brandon who settled in Jamaica in 1741; John Brandon settled in Boston Massachusetts in 1715; William Brandon settled in Connecticut in 1630; Martin Brandon settled in Virginia in 1626.
