The Beller name was coined by the Anglo-Saxon tribes of Britain. Beller was originally a name given to someone who worked as a bell-founder or a bellringer. The surname Beller is derived from the Old English word belle, which means bell. The surname Beller was first found in Cambridgeshire, where they held a family seat from ancient times. The parish of Kirby Bellars in Leicestershire takes its name from the foundation of a college there in 1359 during the reign of Edward II. [1]CITATION[CLOSE]

Many English families tired of political and religious strife left Britain for the new colonies in North America. Although the trip itself offered no relief - conditions on the ships were extremely cramped, and many travelers arrived diseased, starving, and destitute - these immigrants believed the opportunities that awaited them were worth the risks. Once in the colonies, many of the families did indeed prosper and, in turn, made significant contributions to the culture and economies of the growing colonies. An inquiry into the early roots of North American families has revealed a number of immigrants bearing the name Beller or a variant listed above: Beller Settlers in United States in the 18th Century- Hans Jacob Beller, who arrived in New York in 1709 [2]CITATION[CLOSE]
