Heartily wielding the formidable family motto of "Mindful of benefits!" boldly through the erosional sands of time, the proud and noble English surname of Kellum was washed upon Britain's shores amidst the tidal wave of Immigration following the Norman Invasion of 1066 A.D.

Earliest records reflect that this distinguished family held a family seat at Nottinghamshire, and were granted lands by Duke William of Normandy for their valued aid in the Battle of Hastings.

The surname Kellum itself derives from the Old Norse language expression meaning "at the ridges".
