Yes, I believe the Inglis/Inglish/English families in that area are all related. They just varied the spelling a lot (or maybe it was varied for them). My mother was very insistent that it was "Inglish" with an "I" and not "E" ("English"). Other family members seem to have similar stories. From what I can see the older records are more likely to have it "English". Anyone have a clue as to why there would be strong feeling over the spelling of a name?

Having this to happen within my family last name spelling changed . In my case it happened right at or during civil war Example the father was alive and was spelled Derryberry. Son was also alive and lived nearby it was spelled Deberry ever since. The son which was my great grandfather named his only son Robert E. Lee Deberry. For those of you that live in and around cannon county Tn. He Robert Deberry was a the head carpenter of center town high school when it was built in about 1935. If you can pin down the spelling change as to a appox. year please post it. i am curious by nature. don --------------------------------- Blab-away for as little as 1¢/min.

In the early 1970's, my aunt in Bedford County, had a Doctor named Derryberry ??? Kevin Morgan

My ex-husband is Mooneyhan....but he said that two of his uncles got into a big fight over something...and one changed his name to Mooneyhan.....from Mooneyham. May be the reason from some name changes.....Family Feuds.....
