The Revells from the 11th to the 16th Centuries
One of my grandmother Harriet Hind’s older sisters, Ada, married Richard Revell in
1903. It proved quite easy to follow his line back eight generations to Francis and Jane of
Clowne, Derbyshire. It seems probable that Francis’s father was William Revell of
Morton, Derbyshire, but this has not been proven. Attempts to identify William’s parents
have so far failed, although some researchers suggest William’s father was John of
Shirland. In an attempt to resolve this a great deal of good quality information has been
collected and has been transformed into this document. Hopefully it will be of interest to
other researchers.
The information is fully referenced and many of the references can be accessed on the
web. Material that is little more than a guess, such as some dates of birth, is shown in red.
Information that may well be accurate, but which cannot be fitted in to the existing
framework is also shown in red. There are gaps, and certainly there will be some errors.
Corrections and additional information would be appreciated and will be incorporated as
appropriate. Please Contact us
