A series of conflicts regarding England's governance during the years 1642 to 1651 is now known as The English Civil War. Charles I summoned supporters to join him against his enemies in Parliament. In October 1642, nearly 10,000 men fought for Charles I and chased Parliament across the River Tamar. Fighting continued for years and was finally ended at the Battle of Worcester on September 3, 1651, with a Parliamentarian victory.

Name Meaning

English (Surrey): probably from a lost or unidentified place in or near Alford in Surrey, named with either Old English ticcen ‘kid, young goat’ or the Old English personal name Tica + Old English ora ‘bank’. The surname is recorded as Tykenore in Alford in 1332. Tigner is a later variant form.
