Haskell Family History hosts the most comprehensive FREE international Family
Genealogy Database available for research on Haskells of English Origin. Our
extensive Family Database includes many events and notes on individual ancestors.
In this database are many different family trees of our international family. This
database is available for your personal research and may not be reproduced on any
commercial website or for any commercial purpose. Please check all sources for
yourself as this database is always a research work in progress. Genealogy
research is more popular than ever as worldwide Haskells seek out their Family
add some useful research information apart from the database. The Willis, Clarke,
World, Cairns and Eather families have their own research database. This website is
created by one family member for Haskells everywhere. Regularly check out Haskells
Why are there different origins of the surname? Some members assumed the
family name following emigration or persecution. But what of those who did not
assume the surname as we know it? Where and how did they come by it? Many
theories abound as to the beginnings of our surname but due to the loss and
deterioration of many ancient documents, we may never know for sure. The thrill of the
hunt for that elusive detail to back up our pet theory is the fun part of genealogy!
Is the English origin from Hucca or Housecarle. Were those named Hucca originally
found at Le Hoc, now Hook Farm near Wardour Castle in Wiltshire, England? Did the
name originate with the king's bodyguards, the Housecarles? Is it of Anglo, Saxon,
Norman, Norse or even Welsh origin? How do the Hurscarls of Bruton in Somerset,
Haskells of English Origin aka Hascolls were first documented around the villages of
Cann, Fontmell Magna, West Compton, Motcombe and Gillingham near Shaftesbury
in Dorset. Nearby they were found in Somerset at Bruton, Stourton Caundle, Bath,
Frome plus Charlton Musgrove, from where the family of William Haskell emigrated to
America abt. 1635. Wiltshire places include Salisbury formerly called Sarum and the
villages of the Donheads, the Deverills, Horningsham, Semley, and Wylye. Haskells
later spread out to more distant places in Hampshire, Devon, Cornwall, Greater
Haskells are international: Adventurous family members emigrated worldwide to
Europe, America, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. A few Haskells may be
found in Barbados, the Bahamas, Germany, Sweden, Netherlands, Denmark and
even Oman and Israel in the Middle East. The United States of America and Canada
host the majority of our present day family. Haskells now live throughout the United
Kingdom while South Africa, New Zealand and Australia have small contingents of
