Facts About
Hindley
Hindley is a locational surname, originating from any of the places so-called or similarly spelled across Britain. Locational surnames were traditionally given to someone who had moved away to a new area, whereby they were assigned the name of their original home as a surname to differentiate them from the other townspeople. The place name itself comes from the Old English ‘hind’ referring to a young deer and ‘leah’ meaning forest. It would therefore have been given as a town name for a place next to woods that were full of deer. |
