Early Origins of the Wildblood family

The surname Wildblood was first found in Lancashire 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 1366 for Roger and William Wildblood held lands.
