Welcome to darnton.info, a world wide web resource for information about Darntons (and others associated with them), their history, works, and achievements.
Information started with a project called the Darnton Index. That is a listing of all Darntons that can be located anywhere, anytime. The current estimate is that about 1500 people have been born originally or brought up with the family name Darnton since about 1450. The Darnton Index is an ongoing project to try and place people within family groups. It would be nice to include as much information as possible, and fill in some of the gaps if possible. Perhaps you want to know more about how you fit into the broader family tree(s)? Over the years, many Darntons have been placed successfully in a broader family context. This web site went live in November 2001.
The categories of information for this website are projected to include:
Darnton Single Name Study - Darnton Index - Darnton Businesses - Darntons Worldwide

[The Darnton Learning Zone has been removed. It was here for experimental purposes. Unfortunately it proved to be a bad experience! - far too much hacking and graffiti by people who have nothing better to do in life than deface websites! It will be replaced when software security issues have been resolved.]
