The Catteralls have been around a long time, we can trace the origins of the family back to just before the Norman Conquest (1066), and there are more speculative links back to earlier Celtic Britain and France. The first documentary evidence is the grant of the manors of Holcath and Catterall around 1200 from Wiliam of Lancaster to descendants of the old lords of Goosnargh; Robert (who took the name of Catterall), his wife Beatrice (or Avice) and Michael de Athelson (her husband.)
