The history of the last name Itterly

The surname "ITTERLY" is an uncommon name with roots that can be traced back to the county of Derbyshire in central England. It is believed to have originated in the late 13th or early 14th century, possibly derived from a place name or a descriptive nickname.

One possible origin is that the name evolved from the Old English words "ytter" or "utter," meaning "outer" or "exterior," combined with the suffix "-ley" or "-ly," which denotes a field or clearing. This suggests that the name may have been given to someone who lived or worked on the outskirts of a village or settlement.

Another theory is that the name is a variant of the surname "Utterly," which itself is derived from the Old English personal name "Ūđred" or "Ūđræd." This name was composed of the elements "ūđ" (meaning "property" or "wealth") and "ræd" (meaning "counsel" or "advice").

The earliest known record of the name "ITTERLY" is found in the Pipe Rolls of Staffordshire, dated 1332, where a certain William Itterly is mentioned as a landowner. Another early reference is in the Court Rolls of the Manor of Wakefield in Yorkshire, where a John Itterly is listed as a tenant in 1379.

One notable bearer of the name was Sir Ralph Itterly (c. 1460-1522), a knight and landowner from Nottinghamshire. He served as a Member of Parliament for Nottingham during the reign of King Henry VIII and was known for his involvement in local government and judicial affairs.

In the 17th century, a prominent figure with the name "ITTERLY" was Reverend Thomas Itterly (1601-1672), an English clergyman and author who served as the Rector of Sutton Coldfield in Warwickshire. He wrote several theological works and was known for his strong Puritan beliefs.

Another individual of note was Captain William Itterly (1689-1758), a British naval officer who served during the War of the Spanish Succession and the War of the Austrian Succession. He was recognized for his bravery and leadership in several naval engagements against the French and Spanish fleets.
