www.pearsall-family.org

 

This website is dedicated to members of the Pearsall family and extended cousins worldwide (including variant surnames and adoptees), the Pearsall family history, and the Pearsall family genealogy. The website also contains information relating to the Pearsall Family Surname (DNA) Project which is open to anyone who wants to test or verify their relationship to other Pearsall family members (43-marker male Y-chromosome STR genealogical test).

 

The family surname may have evolved over eight hundred years into many surnames, these include:-

 

Parasol, Parcell, Parcelle, Parcells, Parcoll, Parsells, Parsells, Parsels, Parshall, Parsil, Parsill, Parsils, Parsoll, Parsolls, Pascal, Pashley, Passal, Passaley, Passelew, Pearcall, Pearceall, Pearceaull, Pearsall, Pearsel, Pearsell, Pearsol, Pearsoll, Peartil, Peashall, Peirsol, Perceaull, Persall, Persaul, Persee, Persel, Pershall, Persil, Persils, Persoll, Pertil, Perzel, Peschale, Peshale, Peshall, Pesenschale, Pexsall, Piersol, Piercall, Pierceall, Piersall, Porselly, Purcall, Purcel, Purcell, Purkell, Pursel, Pursel, Pursell, Purshale, Pursley, Purslow, Pussal, and Pysse. Other related ancestral surnames include: Corbeil, Lumley, Suggenhull, Swinnerton, and Swynnerton. The Y-STR genealogical DNA test will help piece together the puzzle of surnames and relationships.

 

All of these possibly related surnames (and probably a few others not listed) potentially share a common paternal ancestor from Ålesund, NorwayRollo (Gange Hrolf in Norwegian). Rollo was the Duke of Normandy, France between the years 911 and 932 A.D. (born ~854 A.D., died 932 A.D). Rollo was the thirty-third generation of a line of Scandinavian / Viking noblemen from Sweden and Norway.

 

Six generations after Rollo, his descendants resettled to England and shortly thereafter (about seven generations after Rollo in ~1200 A.D.) the Norman family took ownership of the Peshale Manor, now called Pershall near what is today Eccleshall, Staffordshire County, England. The name of the manor thus became the origin of the Pearsall family surname. Twenty-four generations after Rollo in ~1629, Thomas Pearsall resettled to the English colony in Virginia to start tobacco farming.

 

American Pearsalls can be found throughout the United States, though greatest concentrations are predominately in the states of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Florida, Michigan, Washington State, Oregon, and Montana. Pearsalls in Australia, South Africa, and Canada probably trace their roots to immigrants from England.
