George Washington's earliest recorded ancestor was William de Hertburne, a nobleman from Northern England. He was given a manor in the village of "Wessyngton", and changed his name to William de Wessyngton. Both the village and the surname changed to "Washington".
The village has grown into a medium-sized town, located between Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Sunderland and Durham.
The name "Washington" ultimately comes from Old English. It means "the estate (ton) of the people (ing) of Hwaessa (or Wassa)".
