Categories: Nowell Name Study


There were a significant number of people with the surname Nowell, or variant spellings of that, in Cornwall, England, with entries in parish registers dating back to the 16th century. They ranged from gentry, landowners and prosperous business people to labourers and miners. One of them, Peter Nowell, c.1673-1740, emigrated to North America and had siblings who stayed in Cornwall.

Spellings of the surname in Cornish records include Nowell, Nowel, Nowells, Nowels, Noel, Noell, Noells, Knowel, Knowels, Knowell and Knowells.

In the 19th century a member of the Usticke family of Cornwall changed his surname to Nowell-Usticke after lands owned by a wealthy Nowell passed by inheritance into his family’s possession.
