It comes from when a family lived in the village of Huxtable in East Buckland in the county of Devon. The suffix staple was originally derived from the Old French word estaple when translated means a mart or market-place. Therefore the original bearer of the surname Huxtable lived near an area that was a market place.Before the last few hundred years, the English language had no fast system of spelling rules. For that reason, spelling variations are commonly found in early Anglo-Saxon surnames. Over the years, many variations of the name Huxtable were recorded, including Huxtable, Hucstable, Huckstable, Hokestaple and others. First found in Devon, where they held a family seat from ancient times. This web page shows only a small excerpt of our Huxtable research.

Many of the families that came from England went on to make essential contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States.

Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
