The surname Delahoulle was first found in Brittany where they held a family seat in the honor of the seigneurie of Kermossonet.
"The name of Houel or Hoel is of Breton origin, as was at first, a personal denomination. The different branches of Houel, whose cradle was in the parish of Tourneur, near the town of Vire, probably had for their ancestor Breton emigrants, who established himself in this fief, of which his first descendants bore the name. In fact, we find in some of the lists of the Conquest the name of Houel, replaced in others by that of Sire de Tourneur." 1
"The descendants of the Norman Houell were seated in the counties of Norfolk and Suffolk, at Hillington in the former and at Ashfield in the latter. One of them, Richard Hovell, squire of the body to Henry V., was ancestor of the family of Hovell." 2
