    3. Hi Joan, it looks like I did put up Ache a while ago, but I'm not sure on what list. It should start. The Achey Family. Among the Norman soldiers who went with William the Conqueror to England in the year 1066, the Dooms-day-Book preserved several by the name Ache. Spelling; Ache, Achey, Acha, Achi, Achia, Achi, Acke, Ackie, Ackee, Aikey, Aggy, Auge, Oachy, Othey, Aoe, Achan, Achin, Aukey, Aucha, Auchy, Auchey, Aughe, Aughey and others.
