mankelow family origin

I too have traced the "Mankelow" name back to circa 1600 Pembury. I have also found a old debate on-line about the same thing,

From this it seems the name "could be" French as there was a French influence on the ancient iron industry in the E.Sussex and Kent Weald, and that William or "someone" could have been imported to show the English how to make iron.
On a slightly different tact, in some historical fiction, cannon were manned by French or Italian mercenaries, so could be one came over here? 

Any body help? Sad
