History-LANKFORD Family
The LANKFORDS seem to be able to trace their family line back to Halfdan Sveidasson in Norway. At the time, the son would take the first name of the father, add son to it, and this would become his last name. This changed around the 900’s, when Ralnulph left Norway to France. In the 1050’s, when Robert De Toeni left France to England. De Toeni was changed to De Longford. Roger I De Toni is listed in the Millennium File being born in 990 in Conches, Normandy, France in 1038 or 1039. Dropping the ‘De’ of De Longford began around 1214 and the name changed to Lankford in the 1560’s, when the family sailed to American. Probably changed on arrival.

We make every effort to document our research. There is a lot of information that I do not have, and I know there are mistakes in this tree. My feelings will not be hurt if you give me corrections or additional information, especially if you can provide sources for the information.
