About the Project

The Utting Name Study project serves as a collaborative platform to collect information on the UTTING family name and serve as a valuable research point for any genealogist with interest in the name.

Research Parameters

The Utting surname does not have one single origin point. In some cases, it is a German surname which may be topographically linked to Utting am Ammersee, a town near Munich.

The intention of this study is to research the surname as it appears in England, where it is believed to be of Saxon origin and derived from the Saxon word otta meaning 'riches'. It also includes Uttings of the United States, Australia, New Zealand and other countries where their ancestry may be traced back to the United Kingdom.

How to Join

To join the Utting Name Study please contact the project leader, Amelia Utting.

Categorisation

When adding Utting profiles to the appropriate name study location categories, they should be added only to the category matching their place of birth. This is because the purpose of these categories is to indicate family groups.

Research Process

  • Complete adding profiles for 1911 census entries of children born in 1908.
  • Begin creating profiles for 1908 GRO birth registrations in England and Wales who do not appear in the 1911 census.

Research Updates

  • [17 Nov 24] — Thus far, every Utting whose birth was registered in the GRO between 1909–1911 now has a WikiTree profile. Ideally, I would like to have the period from 1905–1911 complete before the New Year, but this might be optimistic. ~~Utting-102

There is a branch of Uttings in Great Ryburgh, north Norfolk - my ancestors - recorded from the 1700's as Utten, Utten and Uttin, and became Utting, at least in my branch by mid 1800's. Some families continued as Uttin, including one who emigrated to Vermont in the 1830's. Should these be included in your Utting One name study?
Apologies for such a late response, Veronica! Where people used Utting they are more than welcome to be included, but if they sustained another surname for several generations I'd like to leave them out at this stage until such time as all of the Utting profiles and branches have been connected :)
