Early Origins of the Demorall familyThe surname Demorall was first found in Brittany, where the family has held a family seat since ancient times. Members of this distinguished family were the Lords of numerous fiefdoms and seigniories, such as Aubignosc, le Castellard, le Chaffaut, Château-neuf-sous-Volonne, l'Escale, Mallemoisson, Riaud, Sieyes, Thoard-le-Noble and Valbonnette. On May 10, 1836, Charles Nicolas Auguste of Châteauneuf-Randon, Marquis of Apchier, authorized his son-in-law, Mr. Morel of La Colombe of La Chapelle, to take his name, title and Coat of Arms of Châteauneuf-Randon of Apchier, and a Royal ordinance authorized the changes and addition to Mr. Morel's name. Étienne Morel, born in 1632, son of Vincent and Marguerite, travelled from Normandy to Canada in the 17th century. After arriving in Quebec he married Catherine Patou, born in 1642, daughter of Abel and Marie, on 9th January 1663. 1 Early History of the Demorall familyThis web page shows only a small excerpt of our Demorall research.
