NEVILLE Family History
This great and noble surname is of Norman origin, introduced into England after the Conquest of 1066. It is a French locational name from "Neuville" in Calvados or "Neville" in Seine-Maritime, Normandy, both so called from the Old French "neu(f)" new, with "ville", a settlement. Locational names were originally given as a means of identification to those who left their village or place of origin to settle elsewhere. The Anglo-Norman family of Neville acquired the surname when Robert FitzMaldred, who came of age in 1195, married the heiress to Henry de Neville, from Neuville in Calvados; their son was known by his mother's surname...Who have we missed?

My great great grandmother was born in Ireland around 1833. Her name was Charlotte Louise Neville. Her sister Sarah Matilda was born in 1828. I'm in California, USA and can't find any info on their parents. The girls moved to the USA before marrying. I'd love any info anyone may have.
