Surnames

Dinsdale Origins:

It is believed that the name originates with the village of Low Dinsdale on the Durham and North Yorkshire border, by the River Tees.  Low Dinsdale is between the towns of Stockton and Darlington - there is also a Dinsdale railway station. There are a significant number of Dinsdale families in Wensleydale, North Yorkshire, which is where our Dinsdale branch originated.

The name Dinsdale is understood to be derived from the Viking Danesdale (“valley where Danes have settled”).
