THE ORIGIN OF THE WHITEHEAD NAME The Richmond Times Dispatch - 1981 Whitehead - In most instances this is a descriptive nickname given a person who had white or light colored hair. The nickname became a surname when it was added to his single given name for official identification. In England John Whitehead lived in Leicestershire in 1279. Roger Witheud lived in Huntingdonshire in 1279. William Hwitheud lived in County Kent in 1317. Robert Whithede lived in Yorkshire in 1338. Agnes Wythod was probably surnamed from her habit of wearing a "white hood". Henry de (of) Whiteheued, who lived in County Cornwell in 1297, probably lived at the "whitehead of a field or hill". In Scotland, Adam Whyteheude de Hoton was a juror in Berwick in 1300. Henry Quhitehede was a burgess of Edinborough in 1423. Andrew Quhyteheide was vicar of Lowname in 1485. Phillip Quhyteheide was fined for disturbing the peace in Aberdeen in 1492. Phillip Whitehead was a deputy sheriff of Linithgow and also a member of Parliament in 1585. Mattew Weitheid or Weitheit, lived in Dunfermline in 1581.
