Re: Surnames Code and Nora
in reply to a message by Jim Young
In my family tree, I've got three generations of Ingrahams starting at approximately 1550. They appear to be nobility from Barrowby, England.
It changes from Ingraham to Ingrahm with Johanna Ingrahm, who came to Massachusetts from England and lived from 1632-1699.
So it's an English name, I suppose.

So many Americans claim descent from European nobility I'm surprised that there are so many of the inbred wasters left over here.
