Origin Displayed: English

Where did the English Menlove family come from? What is the English coat of arms/family crest? When did the Menlove family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the history of the family name?

The origins of the distinguished Menlove family in England are uncertain. There was an Old English personal name "lufu," meaning "love"; however there was also a Norman French "louve," denoting a female wolf. It is most likely that as a surname, Menlove developed independently from both of these sources.

Spelling variations of this family name include: Manlove, Menlove, Manlovell, Manleave and others.

First found in Staffordshire where they were anciently seated as Lords of the Manor.

Some of the first settlers of this family name or some of its variants were: a Manlove family, who arrived in Maryland in 1665; among the family members were John, Mark, Christopher, Ann and William Manlove. Other settlers include Ebenezer Manlove, on record in Delaware in 1764.
