WHAT FAMILIAR NAMES MEAN WATCH THISCOLUMN DAILY Copyrighted by I DR. HARRY A. DEFERRARI LING. The family name "Ling" is found in the earliest English records, but is of Scandinavian origin. Its source is the Old Norse "lying" which means "heath” and ’heather," and which indicates an original place of residence. A certain John de Ling is mentioned in the Hundred Rolls. Many families bear this name because of having lived at • one time in the village of Ling In i County Somerset. "Letty Linton" means "Happy Flax-Farm." LISTER. The family name "Lister" (also written "Lyster") is of frequent occurence in early English records. It is ultimately of Scandinavian origin, meaning "the dyer," and It denotes the occupation of the persons who were first so called. Early instances of this name are Andrew i le Litster (1301), Huge le Lyster and Robert le Litster (1332) and Robert le Lyster (1397).
