Where did the English Julia family come from? What is the English Julia family crest and coat of arms? When did the Julia family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Julia family history?

The origins of the name Julia are with the Anglo-Saxon tribes of Britain. The name is derived from the personal name Julian, which was both masculine and feminine in Old English. Consequently, both patronymic and metronymic surnames are derived from this name. The personal name Julian was originally derived from both the Latin masculine name Julianus and the Latin feminine name Juliana; these were both names of saints and enjoyed great popularity.

The first dictionaries that appeared in the last few hundred years did much to standardize the English language. Before that time, spelling variations in names were a common occurrence. The language was changing, incorporating pieces of other languages, and the spelling of names changed with it. Julia has been spelled many different ways, including Julian, Jullian, Julyan, Juliane, Julion, Gillian and others.

First found in Cambridgeshire, where they held a family seat from ancient times.

Thousands of English families in this era began to emigrate the New World in search of land and freedom from religious and political persecution. Although the passage was expensive and the ships were dark, crowded, and unsafe, those who made the voyage safely were rewarded with opportunities unavailable to them in their homeland. Research into passenger and immigration lists has revealed some of the very first Julias to arrive in North America:
