Surname: Tullett

<!--diPageBody start-->This ancient English surname is unusual in that it has a female origin. It derives from the pre 8th century female personal name 'Matilda'. 'Matilda' translates as 'the mighty battle maid', a striking description which no doubt accounted for much of its popularity in the period known as the "Dark Ages", that is to say before the Norman Conquest of 1066, and before the introduction of surnames. Matilda was so popular that it rapidly developed many short or nickname forms. These include Tilda, Tilla and Tulla, and these became surnames in their own right. As part of the surname development diminutives such as "Petit Till" (Tillett) or Petit Tull (Tullett), followed closely afterwards. Early examples of the recordings include George Tillote of the county of Suffolk in the year 1303, and John Tillet of Suffolk in 1685. Joseph Tullet emigrated to the new colony of Virginia in 1635, making him one of the earliest of recorded settlers in the New World. The first recorded spelling of the family name is believed to be that of George Tillote which was dated 1279 The Pipe Rolls of Oxford during the reign of King Edward I The Hammer of the Scots 1272-1307 Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

Re:Tullett Coat of Arms & History

Date Posted:06/13/2009 02:31 AMCopy HTML

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Tullett/message/22
Until my Grandfather and his brother, joined to Army all my ancestors were known as Tulett. The entire family were from the three villages of East, West and South Harting in Sussex on the Hampshire border. I have documentary evidence that will trace them back to 1791, but the important thing is the family never moved from the villages mentioned, apart from the odd exception. There were many hundreds of TULLETT families fairly close by in Surrey and the other side of Sussex but my family were unique inasmuch as they were 1 L and not 2. Despite all the variations i.e. Tulip, Tulitt etc we were always one L only.
Also in the village was a baptism record for a female named TULIT in 1699 but that is the earliest record I can find in the village.
 
As a kid my name was often pronounced Chew'let. The many TULETT's in the Chichester area still pronounce their name as Chew'let. The Chew is pronounced as the French pronounce the town of Tulle in France. From somewhere during my research I was informed that "ette" is placed after a person's town to denote that the person is from that town. Therefore a person from TULLE would be known as TULLETTE. I believe it possible that people from TULLE came over with the French Huguenots in the 17th century.
In SE France near the town of Drome there is a vineyard by the name of Tulette. Wine from this vineyard can often be found on the shelves at Sainsburys. I have also had wine from this store with the name of Toulette stamped in the cork rather than on the label.
Also in the South of France, in Cahors, there is a monument to a number of school children killed during the war by the Germans. There are three TULET's mentioned.
 
So there it is. Nothing scientific, just speculation in the main. All my research was 10 years ago and more information may now be available.
 
I would like to keep in touch and would appreciate knowing if this information is of any use to you.

I would be most interested to know where you got the information
alluding to a french connection to the tullett name.  My late
grandfather and his ancestors were believed to come from France to
Canada.  His last name was Toulette. Hardly any information can be
found on this surname.  I know from records that he also used the
sirname Tullette.  Using that name I still found no information.  In
my search I did find that there are a few people who exist with the
Toulette variation.  Any thoughts.

David,

There is an article entitled "Which surnames are Huguenot names?" at the following address:
http://www.island.net/~andreav/hugnames.htm
which you may find useful. On the same web-site there are surname lists but TULLETT does not feature amongst them.

I've heard of a Huguenot connection suggested with the surname TULLETT because of the double 'L' and 'T', but when these double letters appears is not clear.

The spelling of TULLETT varies in Parish Records for the same family so that the double letters may be a more recent occurence.

I've looked at several lists available on the internet, e.g. the ones at:
http://www.rootsweb.com/~fianna/surname/hug1.html
and have yet to find a TULLETT.

If you find anything out I would be very interested to know.

Regards,

Andrew.

<!--body: begin-->Hi
No, I do not have one (yet!), but should there be any apparent connection I will post it here in due course.
Thanks for the info though, the name was quite common throughout Sussex in the 1800's and is believed to have come from the French protestant Huguenots fleeing catholic persecution in Europe.
Regards
Chris
