Disney family

This page describes the family of Elias Charles Disney (son of Kepple Disney and Mary Richardson Disney), the father of Walter Elias "Walt" Disney.

The family name, originally d'Isigny ("from Isigny"), is of Norman French derivation, coming from the town of Isigny-sur-Mer. The Disneys, among others, descended from Normans who settled in Ireland around the 11th century.
