Where did the English Yandell family come from? What is the English Yandell family crest and coat of arms? When did the Yandell family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Yandell family history? The Yandell surname comes from the place name Yewdale in Lancashire, which is derived from the Old English word "yew," the type of tree and the Old Norse "dalr," meaning "valley."Before the last few hundred years, the English language had no fast system of spelling rules. For that reason, spelling variations are commonly found in early Anglo-Saxon surnames. Over the years, many variations of the name Yandell were recorded, including Udall, Udale, Udle and others. First found in Lancashire where they held a family seat from very ancient times, at Udale, before and after the Norman Conquest in 1066.

More information is included under the topic Early Yandell Notables in all our PDF Extended History products. To escape oppression and starvation at that time, many English families left for the "open frontiers" of the New World with all its perceived opportunities. In droves people migrated to the many British colonies, those in North America in particular, paying high rates for passages in cramped, unsafe ships. Although many of the settlers did not make the long passage alive, those who did see the shores of North America perceived great opportunities before them. Many of the families that came from England went on to make essential contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States. Research into various historical records revealed some of first members of the Yandell family emigrate to North America: William Udle settled in Carbonear, Newfoundland, in 1798; Patrick Udall settled in Maryland in 1685; John Udall settled in New England in 1751; James Udell settled in Philadelphia in 1862.
