Gallifant
30 years ago a relative of mine researched the name through church records in North Essex and came to the conclusion that the family name stemmed from something like 'Gurlivance' as the name had been changed by phonetic submissions of names on birth or marriage records.I still have a copy of his findings or assumptions.Only 100 years ago two brothers had different spellings of the name'Gallifant' and 'Gallafant'.
