Etymology of IngoldWhat does the name Ingold mean? The Ingold surname is an English name with Norse roots, deriving from either of two Old Norse personal names "Ingjaldr," or from "Ingólfr" ‘Ing's wolf’ (Ing was an ancient Germanic fertility god). Some instances of this name in Britain are thought to have evolved from the place name Ingol, in Lancashire, which is named from the Old English personal name Inga with the Old English word "holh," meaning a "hollow," or "depression." Another source claims the name was derived from "a Scandinavian personal name, retained in the designations of Ingleby, Inglesham, Ingleton, Ingoldsthorpe, Ingoldsby, and other parishes and places, lying chiefly in what are called the Danish counties. The Domesday form is Ingaldus. " 1 Early Origins of the Ingold familyThe surname Ingold was first found in Suffolk at Bury St. Edmunds where Ingold was recorded c. 1095. The Latin form Ingoldus was recorded in Huntingdonshire (1114-1130.) 2 Early Somerset or Huntingdonshire was where some the first recordings of the family were listed in the Hundredorum Rolls of 1273, specifically Edmund Ingold, in Somerset and Cecilia de Ingolde in Huntingdonshire. 3 The Yorkshire Poll Tax of 1379 included entries for Alicia Ingle; Johannes Ingill; Robertus Ingill; Willelmus Ingill; and Agnes Ingilson. 3 Early History of the Ingold familyThis web page shows only a small excerpt of our Ingold research.

| Ingold migration to West Indies | + |
The British first settled the British West Indies around 1604. They made many attempts but failed in some to establish settlements on the Islands including Saint Lucia and Grenada. By 1627 they had managed to establish settlements on St. Kitts (St. Christopher) and Barbados, but by 1641 the Spanish had moved in and destroyed some of these including those at Providence Island. The British continued to expand the settlements including setting the First Federation in the British West Indies by 1674; some of the islands include Barbados, Bermuda, Cayman Island, Turks and Caicos, Jamaica and Belize then known as British Honduras. By the 1960's many of the islands became independent after the West Indies Federation which existed from 1958 to 1962 failed due to internal political conflicts. After this a number of Eastern Caribbean islands formed a free association. 6Ingold Settlers in West Indies in the 17th Century- Mary Ingold, who settled in Barbados in 1672
