Renowden One Name Study

Also numerous other name variants but not Renodin from New York State (which we think is of Polish origin) nor RENAUDIN from France (much as we love their Champagne).

This Name is also registered with the Guild of One Name Studies.

This one name study is being researched by Rick Parsons (GOONS #3605), in conjunction with Philip A. Renowden, the registered Guild of One Name Studies researcher for RENOWDEN (Registered number 1137). Rick's registered study is for TRENOWDEN which we have determined is an alternate spelling of the same name. We would be very interested to hear from you if you have any current or historical connection to the family or have a general interest in what we are doing. Maybe we can link you to unknown or distant cousins. Some of the material we have available is now online and is growing daily. We meet the Guild requirements having extracted all known Births, Marriages and Deaths from the Civil Registration indexes, all known Baptisms, Marriages and Burials from parish registers, all known Wills and Monumental (Tombstone) Inscriptions. That accounts for the raw data but we have done considerable work linking this together into family trees and have done a certain amount of research into particular family circumstances and lifestyles.

About the Project

The Renowden Name Study project serves as a collaborative platform to collect information on the Renowden name. The hope is that other researchers like you will join the study to help make it a valuable reference point for other genealogists who are researching or have an interest in the Renowden name.

As a One Name Study, this project is not limited to persons who are related biologically. Individual team studies can be used to branch out the research into specific methods and areas of interest, such as geographically (England Renowdens), by time period (18th Century Renowdens), or by topic (Renowden DNA, Renowden Occupations, Renowden Statistics). These studies may also include a number of family branches which have no immediate link with each other. Some researchers may even be motivated to go beyond the profile identification and research stage to compile fully sourced, single-family histories of some of the families they discover through this name study project.
