Hi Col, Could be some sort of attachment to the Arundels of Trerice or Lanherne in Cornwall. However there are people called Arundel as a first name in Phillack as well.

In some cases father and son, not all. Arundel Castle is a restored medieval Norman castle in Suffolk would there be any connection there? It seems an unusual name, I would guess that it would have some sort of attachment to something, somewhere or somebody anywhere. What ideas can we come up with?
