Surnames of the United Kingdom (1912) by Henry Harrison

A parish in Essex.

Patronymica Britannica (1860) by Mark Antony Lower

The Barlings belong to a very old family in this county, who, when Hasted wrote in 1790, had been in possession of Barlings, a manor in Egerton parish, from the year 1500, and even before. There was a Mr. Barling who in 1670 left legacies to Cogan's Hospital, Canterbury. The name was in Faversham a century ago (H.). Perhaps this old family came centuries ago from the Essex parish which bears the same name.
