Orgin of Witherell/Wetherell Surname?
Information in the book Witherell/Wetherell/Witherill states that our name comes from the name of a smallvillage in northern England called Wetheral.The authors say it means a place to keep sheep.I understand that this village is still in existance.Has anyone ever been there?
Do other Witherell/Wetherell researchers have any more information on the orgin of our name?
I look forward to reading your responses.
