This one-name study starts from an unknown patriarch called Sceaft. Since this word designates a shaft, a javelinr or a spear in ancient Saxon, the author refers to him as Spearhead. He may have been a Viking whose descendants found their way to Normandy in France. The author believes that descendants of this legendary Spearhead settled at the site of present-day Skeffington in Leicestershire, in the wake of the Norman invasion. Maybe the Conqueror himself was a descendant of Spearhead.
