Where did the English Hinge family come from? What is the English Hinge family crest and coat of arms? When did the Hinge family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Hinge family history? The origins of the Hinge name lie with England's ancient Anglo-Saxon culture. It comes from when the family lived in an area that was referred to as the ing, which means the meadow. The name could also have been a batismal name as in son of Inge. 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 Hinge were recorded, including Inge, Ing and others. First found in Leicestershire 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.

To escape oppression and starvation at that time, many English families left for the "open frontiers" of the New World with all its perceived opportunities. In droves people migrated to the many British colonies, those in North America in particular, paying high rates for passages in cramped, unsafe ships. Although many of the settlers did not make the long passage alive, those who did see the shores of North America perceived great opportunities before them. Many of the families that came from England went on to make essential contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States.
