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

The surname lacalle is of Spanish descent and is of toponymic origin, as it is derived from a physical feature characteristic of the area where the original bearer lived or owned land. The surname lacalle is derived from the Latin "callis" and the Spanish word "calle" which means "street." In modern Spanish "calle" is the normal word for a street, but at the time when surnames were being formed it referred to something rather more modest. Thus, the family name lacalle was giving to someone who lived beside a narrow path or a cattle trail.
