Searles

The Noble Tribe of Searles represented here by Lord Christopher of that Ilk. The name Searles reached England in the great wave of migration following the Norman Conquest of 1066. The Searles family lived in Cornwall. Their name, however, is a reference to Serlo, Normandy, the family's place of residence prior to the Norman Conquest of England in 1066. However, may of the family remained in Normandy as seen by Robert Sorel who was listed there (1180-1195.)
