Patronymica Britannica (1860)
UFFORD. " Of this family," says Sir W. Dugdale, " which afterwards arrived to great honoui', I have not seen anything memorable until 53. Henry III., when Robert, a younger son of John de Peyton, of Peyton in the county of Sulfolk, assuming his surname from the lordship of Uflbrd, in that shire, became Robert de Ufford." His son of the same name was summoned to Parliament as a baron in 1308, and his grandson, also a Robert de Ufford, was created Earl of Suffolk.
