The history of the last name Anglade

The surname Anglade is of French origin, derived from the Old French word "englade" which means "valley" or "glen". This name first appeared in the southern regions of France, particularly in the areas around Languedoc and Provence, during the early Middle Ages.

The earliest recorded instance of the name Anglade can be traced back to a cartulary from the Abbey of Saint-Victor in Marseille, dated around 1090, where a certain Petrus de Anglada is mentioned as a landowner in the region. This suggests that the name was already well-established in the area by the late 11th century.

In the 12th century, the name appears in various charters and legal documents from the region, such as the Charter of Arles from 1131, which mentions a Guillelmus de Anglada as a witness. This indicates that the Anglade family had gained some prominence and landholdings in the area during this period.

One notable figure bearing the name Anglade was Jean Anglade, a 14th-century scholar and canon of the Cathedral of Avignon, who was known for his writings on religious subjects. Another was Pierre Anglade, a military commander who fought alongside Joan of Arc during the Hundred Years' War in the early 15th century.

In the 16th century, the name Anglade became associated with the Protestant Reformation in France. One of the earliest Protestant martyrs was a young man named Jean Anglade, who was executed for his faith in Cabrières in 1546.

As the Anglade family spread throughout France, variations of the name emerged, such as Angleday, Anglaide, and Anglard. These variations can be found in historical records from different regions of the country.
