- Not yet proven to be son of John Ingram of Lapley. Placed here as high probability to be
related, as Stretton is less than a mile away.
Not yet proven to be the son of John Ingram of Stretton. Placed here as high probability
to be related, because both were of Stretton.
Staffordshire Extracts to Plea Rolls (De Banco. Hillary, 36 H. VI)
36th year of Henry the 6th (1458)
Staffordshire:
William Warde and Hugh Warde sued Henry Ingram, of Stretton, Husbandman,
Nicholas Greceholler, of Bruggeford (Bridgford), Husbandman, John Halfhide,
of Whytegreve (Whitgreave), Husbandman, and two others named, for depasturing cattle
(vi et armis) on their corn and grass at Bruggefeld (sic). None of the defendants
appeared, and the Sheriff was ordered to arrest and produce them on the Octaves
of the Purification. m. 19.
A husbandman in england in the medieval and early modern period was a free tenant
farmer or small landowner.
- (Research):The infraction occurred in Bruggeford/Bruggefeld which is actually now known
as Great Bridgeford and is north of Stretton. Whytegreve, now known as Whitgreave;
is part of Saint Mary and Chad parishes. Bridgford is only 1.3 miles North of
Whitgreave. Stretton is 10 miles south of Bridgford, where this infraction took place.
A John Halfhide (Halfehed) mustered at Whitgreve, Staffordshire in 1539 with a
Byll (Weapon). No doubt a relation to the John Halfhide listed in 1458.
Late 13th cent (note that Chebsey is a few miles from Whitgreve)
Contents:
Lease by Robert Hasteng to Gilbert de Waldingefeld of a messuage and a virgate of land in the vill of Shallowford within the manor of Chebsey namely that messuage and virgate which the said Robert held of Gervase de Levedale: for 20 years: 5s per annum.
Witnesses: John Nowel, Richard de Huntenebach, Hugh de Wyverton, Adam de Bafter, Robert de Barnevill, Symon de Halfhyde, Robert de le Hull and others.

*********Believe the following entry is a key to linking our Ingrams of Staffordshire to Those of Nottingham/Derbyshire**********
Close Rolls, Edward II: October 1322', Calendar of Close Rolls, Edward II: volume 3: 1318-1323 (1895), pp. 680-683. Oct. 30th, 1322 York. Richard son of Richard de Riboef of Stretton acknowledges that he owes to Robert Ingram of Notingham 10l.; to be levied, in default of payment, of his lands and chattels in co. Derby. (This may be significant, since it could tie our Ingrams of Staffordshire to Nottingham/Derby)
****This Robert Ingram was found to be corrupt as the Sheriff of Nottingham and could have fled to the lands that were given to him in Derby. Since Ingram's are also mentioned in Stretton (Staffordshire); this is a strong lead that needs to be persued*******
****Using this theory; the family would probably have given up there noble status in Nottingham in exchange to just be alive *******
Per the below entry in 1458, we know Henry Ingram was located North
of his present location (Stretton-Near Penkridge), and Bridgford is mentioned.
Gedling, Gedling (Nottinghamshire) is a main area where a major Ingram family is
located. It is only 25 miles from Stretton (Stretton-Burton-upon-Trent).
Stretton-(Near Penkridge) and Stretton-(Burton) are 25 miles from one another.
Basically Great Bridgeford is 15 miles south of Stretton-Penkridge and 10 miles
north of Stretton-Burton (I have connected Henry Ingram in my database to this
Nottingham Ingram family, but it is not yet proven)
Unlike the Germanic Ingram definition, The Finnish deriviative of Ingermanland
fits our R1A lineage; as Ingria and known as the Ingrians and to Ingram.

Ingermanland
Ingria, Finnish Ingerinta, historic region, NW European Russia, along the Neva River and on the east bank of the Gulf of Finland. Its name derives from the ancient Finnic inhabitants, the Ingers, some of whose descendants (about 93,000) still live in the St. Petersburg (formerly Leningrad) area and are called Ingrians or Finns. In medieval times, the region was subject to Great Novgorod, with which it passed in 1478 to the grand duchy of Moscow. Conquered in the early 17th cent. by Sweden, it remained Swedish until Peter I of Russia captured it in 1702 and built his new capital of St. Petersburg there. The area was formally ceded to Russia by the Treaty of Nystad (1721), which ended the Northern War between Russia and Sweden.
In one version of events, Vikings of Norwegian origin, under their leader Ingimund, arrived in the region in 902AD after having been expelled from Dublin. Ethelflaed, Lady of the Mercians, granted them land in north Wirral, where they settled. (Cheshire/Lancashire area)
The first Viking raids in the west were on islands off the Irish coast in AD795, two years after the famous raid on Lindisfarne (Northumberland). Semi-permanent settlement in Ireland began in the late 830s in fortified camps at Dublin and elsewhere on the major river systems and coastal havens. In England, Danes had reached York by 867. They over-wintered in Mercia (at Repton,Derbyshire), in 873– 4, before heading north and east again. Repton is only 60km from Cheshire, yet our first "confirmed sighting" of Scandinavians on the Dee or Mersey occurs at the surprisingly late date of 893. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle records that a group of Danes occupied a "deserted city in Wirral which is called Chester". These included remnants of a force under Hástein which had recently been defeated by Alfred on the banks of the river Severn at Buttington, Montgomeryshire. They were chased off into Wales the following year by the Mercians; this may have been the occasion for the refortification of the derelict Roman defences, although Chester was not recorded as an official fortified burh until 907.
Our Ingram DNA testing (My Father, My Sons, and Myself) results find that our Ingram's
belong to the Haplogroup R1a1a1
The R1a1a1 lineage is believed to have originated in the Eurasian Steppes north of the Black & Caspian Seas. This lineage is thought to descend from a population of the Kurgan culture, known for the domestication of the horse (circa 3000 B.C.E.). These people were also believed to be the first speakers of the Indo-European language group. This lineage is found in central & western Asia, India, and in Slavic populations of Europe.
In England, it is estimated that only 3 percent of the English population is of the R1A haplogroup. The major R1A population is believed to have come from Scandanavia. Scandinavian migration to the British Isles is a phenomenon that has been occurring for nearly 1,500 years. I belive the Scandanvian name to be derived from Ingermanland (Finnish); and later shorted to Ingram.
The other known major Ingram DNA haplogroups; is the Ingram R1B lineage; which also arrived very early to England. I do believe the R1B lineage would have been very old germanic tribes; but these groups initially settled in the Southeastern portion of the England; in East and West Sussex, and then moving North into the midlands. The germanic name is derived from Engelramus, and means Ing (Germanic God) + Hraban (Raven)
For taxes in 1332; most people in Penkridge didn't own anything worth ten shillings which was the lower limit for taxing and so only those of stature and wealth had to pay. Unless there are some variation of the name I have not found; it is doubtful the Ingram surname of Penkridge parish and close-by areas can be un-covered.
- (Medical):Priory of Gyseburne (North Yorkshire)
Simon de Clarewalle was alive as early as 1270, when
he had the grant of a lease of a tenement in Dale-by-
Hawnby, until the full age of William, son of Philip de
Colvill, heir of John Engram. Robert le Sympel and
Walter de Salcoke, both living in Harlsey parish at
the date of the roll, in company with Robert Engeram,
the predecessor of the above-named John Engram, so
the deed must be prior to 1270 at the latest. John de
Laysingby and John de Gouton, executed in 1282.
In the year 669 AD, St. Chad was sent to be the first Bishop of the newly established Kingdom of Mercia. He had been brought up in the Celtic traditions of Lindisfarne, but, following the Synod of Whitby, he accepted the authority of Rome. He established his Bishopric at Lichfield and, for three years, until his death, he travelled throughout the area. He is recalled through many local place names such as Chadwell, Great Chatwell and St. Chad's Well. He must also have trodden our local pathways.
To maintain and spread the Christian faith, the Saxon Church set up Monasteries, Minster churches and mendicant Friars. In this area Stafford, Penkridge and "Geneshall" had Minster churches, which were of a collegiate nature.
Great Bridgeford
Domesday name Brigeford
13th century name Bruggeford
Domesday entry Land for 2 ploughs.
Great Bridgeford marks the boundary between the Woodland Quarter of the river Sow and its journey onward towards Stafford through a more industrialised landscape. The Woodland Quarter covers the area from Fairoak Grange to Great Bridgeford. Gone are the tree lined riverbanks where the river can hide, now its every move can be seen.
Cuttlestone Hundred "Cuttlestone is the most thinly populated, and one of the smallest of the five Hundreds of Staffordshire, bounded on the west by Shropshire,on the south by Seisdon, on the east by Offlow, and on the north by Pirehill Hundred. It is a fine agricultural district, about 20 miles in length and 12 in breadth, and is all in cultivation, except part of the extensive heath called Cannock Chase, which embraces about 32,000 acres, of which 14,000 are still unenclosed. The River Penk, which divides it into two nearly equal parts, flows through it from south to north, and after receiving many smaller streams, falls into the Sow near Stafford. Parallel with the Penk, the Staffordshire & Worcestershire Canal crosses this Hundred, in its route to the Trent & Mersey Navigation,and the Birmingham & Liverpool Junction Canal, (opened in January,1834) intersects its western division, passing near Brewood and Church Eaton. The London & North Western Railway, between Wolverhampton and Stafford, crosses the centre of the Hundred, and it is skirted on the north by the Trent Valley and Shropshire Union Railways. Coal and ironstone are got extensively near Wyrley and Rugeley. The meadows and pastures on the banks of the Penk are very productive, the uplands to the east of that river have generally a mixed gravelly soil, but most of the lands to the west are a stronger mixed loam,except near the Shropshire border, where the soil becomes lighter. This Hundred is separated into East & West Divisions, and contains two small market towns (Rugeley and Penkridge), seventeen parishes, one extra parochial place, six chapelries, and about forty townships, villages and hamlets. Mr Thomas Pike, of Penkridge, is the High Constable."

The names and the amount to which each was found liable were recorded on rolls. [Particulars not recorded in the Letter-Book.] (Of note is that a Thomas Stalbrok was also listed on this Roll. Both of these families were later found in Staffordshire and Shropshire with our Ingrams).

Also Ingram's own confession. Was born at Stoke, in Herefordshire. His name is not Ogilby, as he formerly stood upon, nor Maxfield alias Messengamus; was brought up in the English seminary at Rome, made priest there, and continued there six years or more, when he was sent by his superior into Scotland, with 50 crowns for his viaticum, and remained a year and a half. Will not tell his superior's name, nor the port where he landed, but it was between Leith and Dunbar. Was sent after the ordinary manner, to do the office of a priest, and refuses to subject himself, according to statute, or to state what houses he has visited; being asked if he would take Her Majesty's part against the Pope, said it was a future contingent, and he knows not what he should do; that truth is not to be told at all times, and that it is a point of honesty not to disclose anything which might cause harm.

Many peoples have a tradition of descent from the Cimmerians and the etymology of their ethnic names may bear out these beliefs (although controversy bedevils this issuetoo). These include the Cymru or Cwmry of Wales and the Cumbria of Western England. It is believed that in the 8
th Century a "Thraco - Cimmerian" migration triggered cultural changes that contributed to the transformation of the Urnfield culture into the Hallstatt C culture, ushering in the European Iron Age. The Greek historian Plutarch (c. 47 - 127 AD), who would have had first hand familiarity with the Cimbri, reported in "Life of Gaius Marius" (written 75 AD) that the Cimbri were Gallo scythians or Celto - Scythians (depending on the translation) who were pushing westward, people known to the Greeks as the Cimmerians. Plutarch then describes the homeland of the Cimbri in the remotest and darkest location "extending into the interior as far as the Hercynian forest" (Black Forest in Germany in the west). Further, This was Homer's occasion for the story of Ulysses [written 850 BC] calling up the dead, and from this region the people, anciently called Cimmerii, and afterwards, by an easy change, Cimbri, came into Italy

Noak Farm, to the east of Woodmanton, was once the seat of the Ingram family. (fn. 21) In the 14th century they seem to have lived at the Hull or Odeshulle, (fn. 22) which now forms part of the Noak estate and comprised Upper Home Farm, which was also the home of the Ingrams in the 16th and 17th centuries. On the marriage of John Ingram with Anne daughter of Francis Winnington at the end of the 17th century the family moved to Ticknell, Bewdley. (fn. 23)
This Ingram family moves South to Northwest in about 20 mile increments, with both
migrations getting the family closer to Penkridge.
Scandinavian settlement in the UK began with the Viking invasions of the British Isles. These are thought to have begun with the sacking of the monastery at Lindisfarne off the Northumbrian coast as early as AD 793, followed by attacks on Jarrow (794) and the Columban church of Iona (976, 802, 806).
I have been leaning toward our lineage in the Northumbria area of England based on our DNA testing; but I need more information from other Ingrams in England to help determine if this is a correct assumption.
If so, our migration would most likely have been from the Baltic Sea to Scandanavia and then to Northumbria, England; and finally to Staffordshire where we find our Ingram's through paper records.
A Richard Ingram is mentioned in Nottinghamshire; around the town of Gedling in 1337-1339 records.
Between 1381 and 1385
Thomas Ingram of Sneynton chaplain to Thomas de Maperleye of Notingham, his heirs and assigns. Quitclaim with warranty of all lands in Sneynton which Thomas de Maperleye has by feoffment of John Ingram brother of the said chaplain and Isabel his wife. Dated Sneynton, Whitsunday 6 Richard II.
"There was a fine levyed at Nottingham the Munday next after the Feast of St. Martin, 3 E. 3. between Walter, son of Robert Ingram, Quer and Robert Ingram, Chivaler, and Orframma his wife, Deforc. of four Messuages, one Oven, forty Acres of Land, six Acres of Medow, and 100s. Rent, with the Appurtenances in Nottingham, which were then settled on the said Walter Ingram, and the heirs of his body; remainder to the said Robert, and Orsramma, and the heirs of Robert. John Ingram of Nottingham, 4 R. 2. conveyed to Sir Gervas Cliston, Knight, Hugh de Willughby, Raph de Adurley, Richard de Gifford of Nottingham, Thomas Martell, Thomas Whatton, Raph de Adurley, junior, and Thomas Ingram, Chaplain, all his Lands, Rents, and Services in Sneynton, and other where in England, &c. Edmund Ingram of Nottingham, 8 R. 2. passed all his Lands, Rents, and Services in Sneynton, to Sir Edmund Perepunte, Knight, and his heirs, and likewise the yearly Rent of eight Marks issuing out of all Lands and Tenements in Nottingham, and Willeford, and Whatton: The Witnesses were John Samon of Nottingham, John Croweshawe, of the same, Henry de Plumtre, then Bayliff of Nottingham, Robert de Watton, John de Burton, &c. I guess that my Lord Marquess of Dorchesters House, wherein his Grandfather Sir Henry Pirrepont dwelt, on the top of St. Mary Hill, was Sir Robert Ingrams, for in 13 E. 2. St. Mary Lane is said to lead from the Kings Hall to the Tenement of Robert Ingram, &c. he is named in Sneynton also, if that Robert was not his father, or other Ancestor, as by the time he should."
