Early Origins of the Millidge family

The surname Millidge was first found in Staffordshire where they held a family seat as Lords of the Manor. The Saxon influence of English history diminished after the Battle of Hastings in 1066.

But Saxon surnames survived and the family name was first referenced in the year 1198 when Roger Melewich held lands.
