Origin Displayed: English

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

The Tremel family has descended through the lines of the ancient Anglo-Saxon culture. Their name comes from having lived in Devonshire at the manors of Sand and Tremayle.

Cornish surnames are characterized by a multitude of spelling variations. The frequent changes in surnames are due to the fact that the Old and Middle English languages lacked definite spelling rules. The official court languages, which were Latin and French, were also influential on the spelling of a surname. Since the spelling of surnames was rarely consistent in medieval times, and scribes and church officials recorded names as they sounded rather than adhering to any specific spelling rules, it was common to find the same individual referred to with different spellings of their surname in the ancient chronicles. Moreover, a large number of foreign names were brought into England, which accelerated and accentuated the alterations to the spelling of various surnames. Lastly, spelling variations often resulted from the linguistic differences between the people of Cornwall and the rest of England. The Cornish spoke a unique Brythonic Celtic language which was first recorded in written documents during the 10th century. However, they became increasingly Anglicized, and Cornish became extinct as a spoken language in 1777, although it has been revived by Cornish patriots in the modern era. The name has been spelled Tremayle, Tremayll, Tremail, Tremale, Tremall and many more.

First found in Devonshire where they were anciently seated as Lords of the Manor of Sand in that shire, some say, at the time of the taking of the Domesday Book survey in 1086, a census initiated by Duke William of Normandy after his conquest of England at Hastings in 1066.

A look at the immigration and passenger lists has shown a number of people bearing the name Tremel: Anthony Tremall who landed in North America in 1695.
