Harrington Genealogy & History
Harrington, a locational English name dating back to ancient Anglo-Saxon days, referred to villages named Harrington in Cumberland, Lincolnshire, and Northamptonshire. The name was derived from Old English "haer", meaning stony ground; "-ing", meaning people; and "tun", meaning settlement. Harrington genealogy is complicated by its unusual variations: Arintone, Harinton, and Heverington. The name is also found in Ireland, perhaps as an Anglicized form of the Gaelic "O hArrachtain". Harrington family history includes a family seat (feudal manor) in Cumberland and emigration to Virginia in 1606. One coat of arms includes three black leopards' faces on a silver shield indicating sincerity as well as valiant and enduring warriors.
