Early Origins of the Troutelle familyThe surname Troutelle was first found in Champagne, where the family has been a prominent family for centuries, and held a family seat with lands and manor. The family were well established in the region of Ardennes/Marne and several members of the family distinguished themselves through their contributions toward the community in which they lived and were rewarded with lands, titles and, letters patent confirming their nobility. The family surname grew in prominence and made important contributions to this early society. They branched into Paris and L'Orne. Jean Trudelle, born in 1626, son of Jean and Marguerite (née Nouier), of Parfondeval, was a French weaver that arrived in Quebec in September 1655. He married Marguerite Thomas, born in 1634, daughter of Jean and Marguerite (née Fredy), on 14th November 1655. They settled on a three acre farm in L'Ange Gardien with their one child. They remained there together until Marguerite's death on 1st September 1695.

The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Ad Sum
Motto Translation: I am
