Gupton Origin of Py, Meaning of Py Origin: The surname origin Tippins or Tipping anciently spelled Typpyng comes from a small village called Clayton-Le-Dale located approximately 5 miles from the city of Blackburn in Lancaster County, England. Tippng hall was the family seat at the time of King Edward III, 1328-1377. Surnames: Tipping, Tippins, Typpyng Submitted by: WILLIAM A. TIPPINS Origin of Py, Meaning of Py Origin: The name Stapelton (as it was invariably spelt before Richard the Second?s time) is Anglo-Saxon. It means a 'trading village;' 'stapel,' a pile or heap, denoting a place where goods were collected and stored for sale?Dr. Johnson defines it, a 'mart or emporium'?and 'tun,' an inclosure or town. It was appropriate to a village like Stapelton, conveniently situated for commerce, on the border-line between the two provinces of Deira and Bernicia, at a point where the river was passable. But the term 'stapel,' or 'staple,' has long since lost its former signification. From being first applied to the place where goods were sold, it was next given to the merchandise sold there, and is now usually understood to mean the product for which the place is best known. The 'tun' was surrounded by an earthen mound tipped with a stockade or quickset hedge, with a ditch outside, and each township was thus a ready-made fortress in time of war.

They appear in my experience to have been involved in cattle trading. There is also an early occurance of the name in Somerset about North Petherton Hundred. The latter appear to have disappeared and it is plausible that they migrated to Berkshire with drovers. Earliest Pether I have found was at the time of Henry VIII in the area of Shinfield/ Arbourfield in Berkshire.
