Frizelle was indeed a palatine name , being one of the palatine families colonised on Abel Rams lands in Old Ross area. Through the years , some of them became catholic through marriage to a catholic. It being a requirement by some priests to convert to Catholicism when a protestant married a catholic. But you will find both protestant & Catholic members of the same branch.

Thank you, that does offer me an explanation. There was a suggestion in my branch of the Frizelles that they originated from Alsace Lorraine. Is it known if  Palatine families come from there? Does anyone know a good  source for Palatine history?

Frizell is a name used commonly in Scotland for Fraser. Gaelic = Friseal.    Skoosh.

Hi all,

I'm piecing the Frizelle family tree together bit by bit (with my cousin Patricia CP who started this thread and various other family members), and a lot of the names that are coming up here are on the tree that I've got.

I have a family tree going back to 1717 in PDF format, which I'll happily email to any interested people who want to trace their roots and help add to it. I'm just after setting up a website, www.frizellefamilytree.com, so I'd be delighted if you check that out and send on any family info you have. (I'm not making the PDF available on the website for privacy reasons, but if you contact me I'll email it to you).

All the best,
Jennie.
Searching for Frizelles all over the world. As far as I know, my branch of the family is originally Huguenot, rather than Palatine, but maybe we can find a connection between the two branches.

See www.FrizelleFamilyTree.com for my research to date.

Hi,

I've received a hand-written scroll from James Frizelle in Australia, whose ancestors originate in Northern Ireland. I can't see any connection between that family tree and my own, but maybe someone out there could have a look and see if they can find a link.

The tree begins with William Frizell (no final 'e' at that stage) in 1783 in Strabane, and I have put the first 4 generations on the Frizelle family tree website (www.frizellefamilytree.com) so please do have a look.

Also, there is a 'Back to our past' event in Dublin this weekend (21st - 23rd October 2011, see http://www.backtoourpast.com/mysitecaddy/site3/index.htm) which I'm going to on the Sunday (23rd) so if anyone would like to meet up there just let me know. You can contact me through the forum here, or the frizelle family tree website.

I too have Frizzel in my tree (husbands side) whom I believe was born in Port Rush Co Antrim, circa 1857 and when she moved to Scotland changed her name from Ellen Frizzel to Helen Frazer. Later immigrated to Australia. Finding it hard to find information due to the name changes.
