Origins?The story I grew up with is that in the approximate 1100's a band of Scotch raiders were being chased north by the English, came to a river, made the crossing, i.e. ford, out of wheat sheafs, thus whitford.
I am inclinded to accept eitherScotch or Welsh for now. We accept the river story in lieu of a better one. But who knows?
