About the Tordoff One-Name Study

The Tordoff Family History Society was formed in 1997 following the successful Tordoff Day held in Braford. We maintain a database of Tordoff events (births, baptisms, marriages, deaths, burials, census entries, memorial inscriptions, etc) and can typically help anyone who has traced their family tree back to the early 1900s.

Variants

The variants Tordiff(e) plus any likely or obvious spelling abberations are included in our database.

Origin of the surname

Opinions differ regarding the origin of this surname. There is a Tordoff Point on the Dumfries coatline in John Speed's 1610 map and this may be the origin. The family obviously came through Leeds from York and settled in the Wibsey area of Bradford - where the biggest concentration of Tordoffs still survive.
