Origins Available: English, French Where did the English Rundle family come from? What is the English Rundle family crest and coat of arms? When did the Rundle family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Rundle family history? When the ancestors of the Rundle family emigrated to England following the Norman Conquest in 1066 they brought their family name with them. They lived in Kent, at the Manor of Rundale, from whence their name is derived.The English language only became standardized in the last few centuries. For that reason, spelling variations are common among many Anglo-Norman names. The shape of the English language was frequently changed with the introduction of elements of Norman French, Latin, and other European languages; even the spelling of literate people's names were subsequently modified. Rundle has been recorded under many different variations, including Roundle, Roundall, Roundell, Roundill, Roundale and many more. First found in Kent where they were a branch of the great Baronial family of Cobham, seated as Lords of the Manor of Roundell in the parish of Shorne. In the 13th century John Cobham gave the Manor of Rundale to his second son. He was styled Lord Thomas de Cobham, alias Roundell, Knight. From this scion many branches descended, many with different spellings of the name Roundell, into the counties of Devon, Cornwall and Somerset.

To escape the uncertainty of the political and religious uncertainty found in England, many English families boarded ships at great expense to sail for the colonies held by Britain. The passages were expensive, though, and the boats were unsafe, overcrowded, and ridden with disease. Those who were hardy and lucky enough to make the passage intact were rewarded with land, opportunity, and social environment less prone to religious and political persecution. Many of these families went on to be important contributors to the young nations of Canada and the United States where they settled. Rundles were some of the first of the immigrants to arrive in North America: Rundle Settlers in the United States in the 19th Century
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. 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. Motto: Tenax propositi Motto Translation: Firm of purpose.
The Rundle Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Rundle Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname. This page was last modified on 28 September 2011 at 14:01. ©2000-2012 Swyrich Corporation.
