I live in Cheshire UK. 30% of Adsheads in the World still live in this area. It is fairly certain that the surname originated close to where I live. However I have very little information on the origins. I have made a list of 800 UK addresses at which about 1300 Adsheads are registered. I also have a list of all Adsheads in the 1881 UK Census. Is anyone interested ? I would particularly like to make contact with anyone who has information on the origin of the Adshead surname.
