The HALLAM Family
of Nottinghamshire
The family name is name
after the Hallam in Derbyshire east of Nottingham, or possibly an area of
the same name in Sheffield & Ecclesfield. Hallam is Old English for
valley (variations: Halam, Hallem) and found mainly
Walter HORNBUCKLE (1602-73) & Ann HALLAM (my 9xGGPs) married on 24.9.1627 in Radford, Nottinghamshire. Seeking any additional information about HALLAM families in or around Radford. The record below suggests Ann's mother may be named Jane.
The National Archives have the following record dated 1629: for Lease for 6 years at £16 rent Jane HALLAM of Radford, widow, and Walter HORNBUCKLE of West Bridgford, yeoman and his wife Anne to Edward NETHERCOATES of West Bridgford gent :-- Radford Hall with all appurtenances, excepting the two Nether Parlours reserved for the use of J.H., and a cottage.
Above this reference is Nicholas HALLAM his possibly his wife Jane: "Nicholas HALLAM of Sherlande co. Derby Clerk to Stephen HILLl mayor and Henrie SHERWIN tanner both of Nottingham :-- all his property in Radford and Lenton or elsewhere--: to the use of N.H. for life, then to his wife Jane for life, then to his children by her (with power of appointment to Jane) then to the right heirs of N.H."
