Bladon Family History
Bladon Name Meaning
from Bladon (Oxon) Bladon in Newton Solney (Derbys) or Blaydon in Ryton (Durham). The first of these is from a probably pre-English river-name and the other two are of uncertain origin perhaps involving Old English blāw ‘blue’ metaphorically ‘cold cheerless’ + dūn ‘hill’.
