Apologies again for my typo in incendiary last sentence beneath brother Bob's well-spoken theory. IWhat I meant to say about Bob's Pontius Pilate concept was (facetious - I've already managed to offend the Quaker Pyles with an unintentional word choice): "Who knows? It might even turn out to be true, which would LINK us all TO the Christ killers."
Maybe that'a because Pyly was a typographical error in my previous communique. It's very sweet of you to have followed up nonetheless, Jeff. PS: My brother Robert J. Pile concocted this theory about the family name last year: For the benefit of the group, my baseless speculation is that "Pile" comes from the same root as "Pilate", as in "Pontius Pilate", and is thus a Roman name brought to England at the time of the Roman conquest then maintained (in a different form than its Roman origin) by the Britons after the Romans left Britain circa 500 A.D. I have no facts to support my theory. I don't even think it's right. But I'd rather think of my family name as Roman than a reference to the peasant who maintained the dung-heap on the edge of some medieval English town. Who knows? It might even turn out to be true, which would like us all the Christ killers. : - ) : - ( In a message dated 10/10/03 11:05:36 AM, jdpyle@xtra.co.nz writes: > Also Pyly appears to be Polish - couldn't understand too much in a search > on > that variation. > . >
On http://www.geneanet.org/ doing a seach for Pyle - Pile (Also Pille as I found one Pyle family had also used this variation.) Heres the list of possible variations that arrived. So if your family came from European roots - It is possible that you may need to search one of these spellings. Point here to remember is - It would seem that many of our family names did not nessecarily descend from one branch (TREE) and it is possible family trees "NAMES" could have been changed when they immigrated to their new country. Also Pyly appears to be Polish - couldn't understand too much in a search on that variation. .

How names can change over the years is fascinating... My family are descended from the Pyles in Cornwall, also noted in Parish records as Pill or Pile and various other spellings depending upon the literacy of those concerned. A good way to check if it is a mispelling is to look at other common names in the same register and you can soon sort out whether the parish clerk had a spelling problem ! However I have recently been told by another family descendant who has done extensively research that our Pyles are descended from a Capt. William Pijlle (he lived in the 1700s ) who is possibly of Dutch origin. Mary, Hawkes Bay, New Zealand .

This is the most common theory or reference of origin for the Pyle - Pile name. Another theory of the origin of the Pyle - Pile name is: "Hereditary surnames developed in England soon after the Norman conquest and are mainly Norman French rather than indigenous English names. The French mainly identified themselves from the name of their estates in France. The English surname Pyle a variant of Pile is of local origin. Local surnames were derived from the place where a person lived, or a prominent local geographical feature, perhaps a hill identified one person from another who lived near a bridge, river, lake, etc. Many of these names were preceded by a preposition such as de, at, by or in. These tended to lapse in later years. Here, the name was given to someone who lived near a stake or post serving as a landmark. Surnames are not just words or sounds. They were introduced as societies became more complex and the need developed for better identification of individuals. Surnames are infinitely more varied than personal names having been culled from many diverse origins and having undergone more changes of form and being derived from many different languages. The surname Pyle has been recorded in documents since the early year of 1221 AD when Henry de la Pil was noted in the Calendar of the Patient Rolls of Somerset and Robert Pile was noted in the Assize Rolls of Somerset in 1243 AD. BLAZON OF ARMS: Asure, three piles or. On a canton gules, a leopards face of the second. CREST: On a ducal coronet or. A pelican with wings addorsed vulning herself proper. MOTTO: Incest clementia forti Translation: Mercy is inherent in the brave." Jeff Pyle New Zealand www.jeffpylenz.com
"Pile" in France is also the name of a battery like Duracell or Everready - it was quite bizarre to see the name in store windows, so I had to ask. This is good stuff, Pile/Pyly people. Keep it coming. : - )
Also, PYLE is French for gate. Steve Thrasher
From a theory put forward (Or it was the fable that ) the name Pyle - Pile (And there are alot of variations to this name also - Originated from soldiers who fought in the "Battle of Thermopylae" which you can read about here http://www.geocities.com/caesarkevin/battles/Greekbattles1.html It was common for soldiers of this time to add the battle name or part of it to their own names to be instantly recognised that they fought in that and hand down to their sons etc. Eventually with the conquest of Britain by the Romans - then the withdrawal of their forces - Many of soldiers were left behind. These soldier held prominent posts and with the withdrawal of their forces - many stayed behind Many had married or taken local wives and had families so remained behind. To fit into the local populous - they dropped the Roman part of the name and just retained the PYLE part - so formed our name to the English language. I cannot confirm this theory or even quote it as other than a fable - BUT anyway - it is interesting and makes a very good story to show our strengths and from the fighting stock we may have descended from.

I haven't seen this offered as a possible solution to the name game, but such things as education (or the lack thereof, particularly spelling) had a lot to do with names. I have one in my lineage where supposedly the spelling was changed after the War for Southern Independence with yankees using one and the true believers the other. Today I am working on family histories wherein I've asked elderly people if they were related to others of the same name nearby, and they say no, my later finding that feuds, etc., also account for spelling differences, one branch not associating with another, etc. My ancestors were Pyles, and that is the spelling I've seen here in central MO. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
