Best Answer

No, this proud and noble English surname, distinguished through history, is a habitational name that was originally bestowed upon those living in the area of one of the Walfordsettlements in Dorset, Herefordshire, or Shropshire, or in Walford Hall in Warwickshire. It is first found in the records of Herefordshire, where they'd held family seat since the very ancient times of the Norman Conquest.

Their family motto, originally a fiercesome war cry, translates to "Know thyself!"
