The Heritage study joins our growing MWP list

Posted 29 May 2020 by W Paul Featherstone

Derek Heritage, who began studying his own family line over two decades ago, has now registered a one-name study of the Heritage surname. The first known location of the name is in Oxfordshire, England from where it progressed to its worldwide presence today. You are encouraged to see what Derek has found at his Members’ Websites Program website https://heritage.one-name.net/, where he explores thousands of people associated with the name working in occupations such as agriculture, innkeeping and funeral directors.
