When did the Paschal family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Paschal family history? Paschal is a name that was carried to England in the great wave of migration from Normandy following the Norman Conquest of 1066. The Paschal family lived in Essex. The name, however, is a reference to Pasci, in Eure, Normandy, the family's place of residence prior to the Norman Conquest of England in 1066.Before the last few hundred years the English language had no fixed system of spelling rules. For that reason, spelling variations occurred commonly in Anglo Norman surnames. Over the years, many variations of the name Paschal were recorded, including Pascall, Paschall, Pascale, Pascal, Paschal, Pascoll and many more. First found in Essex where they held a family seat from very early times and were granted lands by Duke William of Normandy, their liege Lord, for their distinguished assistance at the Battle of Hastings in 1066 A.D. Early records shows a John Pascal in the Assize Rools of Warwickshire in 1221, and a William Pascale in 1275 in the Subsidy Rolls of Worcestershire.

The unstable environment in England at this time caused numerous families to board ships and leave in search of opportunity and freedom from persecution abroad in places like Ireland, Australia, and particularly the New World. The voyage was extremely difficult, however, and only taken at great expense. The cramped conditions and unsanitary nature of the vessels caused many to arrive diseased and starving, not to mention destitute from the enormous cost. Still opportunity in the emerging nations of Canada and the United States was far greater than at home and many went on to make important contributions to the cultures of their adopted countries. An examination of many early immigration records reveals that people bearing the name Paschal arrived in North America very early: Paschal Settlers in the United States in the 17th Century
