The name Buckinghamshire is Anglo Saxon: it means The shire or district (scire) of Bucca's home. Bucca was an Anglo-Saxon landowner. Buckinghamshire has had this name since about the 12th century but the county had been in existence as an area of the kingdom of Mercia (585–919).
Some of the county's settlements date back at least as far as 1500 B.C, for example Aylesbury. Many places that still have their Brythonic (Celtic) names for example Penn and Wendover. There are pre-Roman earthworks all over the county including that of the legendary kings of the Britons, Cunobelinus.
The Roman influence on Buckinghamshire is felt in the Roman roads: Watling Street, Akeman Street and the Icknield Way. However the modern geography of the county is largely as it was in the Anglo-Saxon period. The wealth in the county was notable when the Domesday Survey was taken in 1086: Buckinghamshire was subdivided into 18 hundreds at this time. These later reduced to eight — Aylesbury, Ashendon, Buckingham, Burnham, Cottesloe, Desborough, Newport and Stoke.
William the Conqueror annexed most of the manors and ancient hunts including Bernwood Forest, Whaddon Chase and Princes Risborough. King Henry VIII followed this example by annexing a third of the county. Henry VIII appointed Aylesbury to be the county town over Buckingham.
In the English Civil War (1642–1649) Buckinghamshire was mostly Parliamentarian and the Parliamentarian hero, John Hampden, was from Buckinghamshire. He helped defend Aylesbury in battle in 1642.
In 1682 William Penn, who lived at Penn, founded Bucks County, Pennsylvania with other Quakers from Buckinghamshire. Bucks County, Pennsylvania has places named after Buckinghamshire towns including, Buckingham, Chalfont, Wycombe and Soulbury.
The Industrial Revolution and the arrival of the railway had its effect: Wolverton, now part of Milton Keynes, became a national centre for railway carriage construction; furniture and paper industries took hold especially in High Wycombe.
Mass urbanisation of parts of county took place in the 20th century, which saw the formation of the new towns of Milton Keynes and Slough and the transfer of the latter to Berkshire.
Today the expression 'leafy Buckinghamshire' epitomises the idyllic rural landscape of Edwardian fiction and led to the county's popularity amongst commuters for London.
