Where did the English Hurlock family come from? What is the English Hurlock family crest and coat of arms? When did the Hurlock family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Hurlock family history? The ancestors of the bearers of the Hurlock family name are thought have lived in ancient Anglo-Saxon England. They were first found in the parish of Harlow in the county of Essex.Until quite recently, the English language has lacked a definite system of spelling rules. Consequently, Anglo-Saxon surnames are characterized by a multitude of spelling variations. Changes in Anglo-Saxon names were influenced by the evolution of the English language, as it incorporated elements of French, Latin, and other languages. Although Medieval scribes and church officials recorded names as they sounded, so it is common to find one person referred to by several different spellings of his surname, even the most literate people varied the spelling of their own names. Variations of the name Hurlock include Harlow, Harlowe and others. First found in Essex where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.

Unfortunately, the majority of them traveled under extremely harsh conditions: overcrowding on the ships caused the majority of the immigrants to arrive diseased, famished, and destitute from the long journey across the ocean. For those families that arrived safely, modest prosperity was attainable, and many went on to make invaluable contributions to the development of the cultures of the new colonies. Research into the origins of individual families in North America revealed records of the immigration of a number of people bearing the name Hurlock or a variant listed above: Hurlock Settlers in the United States in the 17th Century
