 * Tunnicliffe is a place name, in 13th century written as Tunwalclif, meaning a group of dwellings on top of a cliff? On the outskirts of Whitworth, north of Rochdale, Lancashire, was a Tunnicliffe Road which ran along the top of a rise. Following the Norman conquest, this area was "in the gift of" the Abbot of Whalley Abbey, and there are records that in 1246 a John de Tunwalclif successfully defended his land inheritance in court. The Tunwalclif/Tonacliffe/Tunnicliff/Tunnicliffe descendants spread from Lancashire to Yorkshire, Cheshire, Derbyshire, Staffs and later Nottingham – though Stoke and it’s potteries attracted the majority. And of course, they crossed the Atlantic. -- Source of the name Tunnicliffe
