Walworth Family History
Walworth Name Meaning
English: habitational name from either of two places called
Walworth, in Greater London and County Durham, both named with Old
English w(e)alh ‘Briton’, genitive plural wala (see
Wallace) + worð ‘enclosure’. The present-day
concentration of the name in Yorkshire suggests the latter is the more
likely source. Compare Wallwork.
