Byollin

[Hardenoaks]

I am researching the Boylin family in Loppington, Shropshire in the 1800's. It seems the name was previously Byollin. I have found records for Byollin in Ellesmere as far back as 1678. Can anyone please tell me where the name originates .

Have you done a google search to look for the origin of it?  (That is what most of us would do as a starting point).

Yes I have searched on Bing, it just asks if I mean Bolling or Bowler. The name Byollin is very clearly written on numerous entries in the church records over a period of 150 years.

There was a post made on RootsChat in 2006 from someone else researching this surname.
You might want to read it and perhaps post them a message to see if anything else has been found since then.

From a placename in Norfolk, first mentioned 1273 (So it is an old, old, name)
