It comes from when the family lived in the area of Ainsworth in the parish of Middleton. Some instances, generally the Hainsworth spelling, come from Hainworth in West Yorkshire, derived in turn from an Old English personal name Hagena; while other instances of the name came from Ainsworth in the parish of Middleton, in Lancashire, from the Old English personal name Ęgen.Before the last few hundred years, the English language had no fast system of spelling rules. For that reason, spelling variations are commonly found in early Anglo-Saxon surnames. Over the years, many variations of the name Ensworth were recorded, including Ainsworth, Ainsworthy, Aynsworth, Answorth and others. First found in Lancashire in the town of that name, near Middleton, near Manchester. This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Ensworth research.

Many of the families that came from England went on to make essential contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States.

The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto. Motto: Spero meliora Motto Translation: I hope for better things.
