      Fetherston of Packwood http://www.Featherstone-society.com/Indexes/england/other/recordoffices/shakespeare2.htm
      [from Administrative History] the Fetherstons of Packwood first appear, in the fifteenth century, as yeomen but by the early seventeenth century had gravitated into the gentry. Their residence was Packwood House, acquired in 1599, and they bought up other nearby properties, in Knowle, Lapworth, Warwick and elsewhere, in the seventeenth century. On the death of Thomas Fetherston in 1720, the estates passed to his sister, Dorothy, who married Thomas Leigh. He assumed the name Fetherston Leigh. Their only daughter, Catherine, died unmarried in 1769, leaving Packwood to the husband of her half-sister, William Dilke of Maxstoke. He took the name Fetherston Dilke, as did his son and grandson. the next in line, who was known simply as John Fetherston, sold Packwood in 1869. for further details, see J.J. Belton, the Story of Packwood, 1951.

Our Names

The spelling of the name Featherstone has varied over the centuries, with additions and subtractions. Here is the list that we have registered with the Guild Of One Named Studies.

Featherstone, Featherston, Fetherstone, Fetherston, Featherstonhalgh, Featherstonehaugh, Featherstonhaugh, Fetherstonehaugh, Fetherstonhaugh.

We have examples from the Birth, Marriage and Death indexes where people were registered at birth with the final 'e' missing and were married with the final 'e' in the surname. The 'haugh' is more difficult to prove, but people have suddenly adopted it for no apparent reason, although we have instances where people adopted the name, usually when money was involved.
