History


The earliest deeds which mention Everton (c. 1300) spell the name as Yveletona.[4] The name may be equivalent to that of Yeovilton in Somerset, and made up of two elements: "Gifl" - a Brittonic river name, and "ton" - an Anglo-Saxon word for a farm.[5] Subsequent variants of the name include Yelverton, Yeovilton, Evilton, and Evelton.[6]

From the time of Charles II down to the beginning of the 19th century, Everton was home to three notable Catholic families, succeeding each other at Everton House - Steptoe, White, and Lacy.[6] The first Anglican church was erected in 1896 and was constructed mainly from wood and corrugated iron.[7] This was replaced in 1970 with the present timber-framed and cedar shingle clad church.[7]

Everton saw some action during World War II. On 15 October 1940 at 12:45 pm, a Messerschmitt Bf 109E-1 was shot down at Everton.[8][9] Less than a year later, at nearby Efford, on 8 July 1941 at 1:25 am, a Heinkel He 111H-3 was shot down by a Bristol Beaufighter, four crew members were killed, but one member of the crew baled out and was captured by members of the local home guard.[8][10]
