This family deduces its origin from the
time of the Norman Conquest, at which
period its first founder came over into
England, and is said to have borne the
name of De-la-How. His grandson having
settled in the county of Berks, the surname
originally signifying " Of the Hill," became
corrupted At the Hill, and thence was
shortened into Atthill. From this De-
la-How lineally descended

his lands. In which tyme there was an
oidd gentleman that lived and was owner of

name John de Kynnardsley, and by title a
knight (if any knights were before the Con-
quest). This ould gentleman was blind, he
had then liveing with him twelve sonnes,
whom with himself he armed, and stood in
his castle gate, his halberd in his hand, at-
tending the coming of sheriffs and other
comiss rs from y e king, who being arrived,
demanded of him by what tenure he held
his castle and lands ; y e old kn" replyed by
his armes, shewing to them his halberd."
