The Stoney family had a seat as Lords of the Manor in Cheshire, which is where the surname Stoney originally appeared. William, Duke of Normandy, who had defeated King Harold at the Battle of Hastings in 1066, gave his numerous victorious barons the majority of Britain. It was not unusual to find a Baron or a Bishop with 60 or more Lordships dispersed all throughout the nation. He granted these to his sons, nephews, and other younger members of his family, and they later acquired the name under-tenants. They adopted the Norman system of surnames, which distinguished the under-tenants from the senior stem of the family by associating him with his lands.
