For further information on a particular Quibell or Quible
family line or other detailed information, including the DNA
study
Below is some background
information on this group of surnames.
The historical origins of the English
Quibell and Quible surnames
The earliest reference to the surname
Quibell (or close derivative) I have found appears in the East
Markham parish register in the year 1566/7 where the baptism of a
James Quibell is recorded in 18th
January 1566/7. This is shortly after the commencement date of the East
Markham register in 1561. It is likely that this James was the son
of Richard and Alles (Alice) Quibell and that he
probably died before attaining the age of ten years as a baptism of a 2nd James
is recorded in 1575. This much can be deduced from the East Markham Quibell
entries that appear in the years leading up to the major plague outbreak at East
Markham in 1609. [The 1609 plague was one of the defining moments
in the history of East Markham and the population was
badly affected losing no fewer than 100 of the village's population of 800
including Richard Quibell.]
Prior to the East Markham entries of the late 1500's
no Quibell or other surname variations starting with Qu*
have been found that indicates another source of this surname. An analysis of
the Quibell and Quible surname variations from the
civil registration indexes (September 1837 quarter until current) and parish
register entries from the immediate area surrounding East Markham,
indicates that Richard Quibell was indeed the source of this surname.
What I have concluded from my research is that it is likely that before
Richard's time that the surname may have been recorded as Twibell
or Twidell (including many other variations such as Twybell, Twyble, Twedell, etc). It appears that subtle differences in
dialect may have given rise to the Quibell variation that took hold in
Nottinghamshire from the time of Richard Quibell.
If you look more broadly you tend to find that the Twibell
surname predominates on the Sheffield side of Sherwood
Forest whereas the Quibell surname is more dominant on the
Nottinghamshire side. In some of the parish registers from the late 1700's
through to the mid 1800's you get quite a few instances where the surnames are
used alternately by the different incumbents who created the parish register
entries. Three examples, including one which shows the use of an alias
illustrate this in detail are listed below.

The Twibell
Y Chromsome DNA study
Some of the information provided above is
circumstantial, although it has also been possible to provide a firmer link for
the male descendants using modern technology.
In 2007/2008 a Y Chromosome DNA
study was undertaken to determine whether a suspected link between the various Twibell/Twible/Twibill and Quibell/Quible
surname variations had a firmer basis.
The DYS marker used in the DNA
study represents sites on the Y chromosome where a series of short sequence
repeats occur, and the number of repeats (given as a number) has been found to
be useful in discriminating between males of different parental lines. The same
sequence is passed down intact from father to son through generations but
occasionally a "mutation" occurs in that at one marker point on the
chromosome a new repeat can be added or subtracted. The frequency with which
mutations occur down the generations differs for the different marker
points. If the participants all originate
from some original Twibell/Quibell male ancestor,
they all ought to match.
We don't know how common the profile is across the entire population and the
same profile is likely to occur in other surnames that originated from the same
common male ancestor prior to surname stabilisation in the fourteenth and
fifteenth centuries. In this limited study the Quibell participant profile
exactly matches the consensus (or average) of all the other Twibell,
Twible and Twibill participants (To nearest whole number
of repeats).
Several of the Twibell/etc. representatives of the
Ecclesfield-Woodsetts branch of the group are one
mutation away from the consensus data. Several other Twibell/etc
descendants of the Felkirk-Crofton-Barnsley and other
Twibell/etc. branches are two to three mutations away
from the consensus.
The only surname not shown to link up via the Y chromosome DNA
study was Twidell, although a broader range of Twidell samples would be required before a connection with
the Twibell/Quibell group of surnames could be ruled
out.

The early Twybell’s
According to a pedigree of families living in and around Sheffield
which forms part of the Jackson collection at Sheffield Public Reference
Library, the Twybell family were retainers to the Talbots Earls of Shrewsbury and were settled several
centuries at Southey in Ecclesfield, the prevailing
and only names in the elder line being several Williams and five James (from
about 1585) in succession. Apparently the first James Twybell
of the five was an important man holding office in the Earl of Shrewbury's household. In 1637 he is shown, as holding at
will a tenement called Southall (Southey) and lands at a yearly rent of 20
pounds. Southey Green, is a hamlet in the township and
parish of Ecclesfield, 3 miles north of Sheffield,
5 from Rotherham. [Descriptive catalogue of Sheffield
Manorial Records" by T. Walter Hall (1926) and "Descriptive catalogue
of the charters, rolls, deeds, pedigrees, pamphlets, newspapers, monumental
inscriptions, maps and miscellaneous papers forming the Jackson collection at
Sheffield Public Reference Library" by T. Walter Hall (1914)]
The folklore origin of the English surname
The tradition in our family was that
the Quibell’s were originally Huguenot or Protestant
refugees from Southern France or the Basque region of Spain.
(Apparently the name Quibell means Cask or Vat Maker in French). I can only
guess that this is because the name looks and sounds French! However, all of
the earliest Quibell’s dating from the late 1500's have the English Christian names of the day, rather than
French or Spanish Christian names.
Eve McLaughlin in her book on surnames and their origins makes the point
"...A lot of names sound French, and are said to be 'Huguenot'. Some are,
but some are a lot older, and 'came over with the Normans',
not necessarily as the name of a baron. The invading Norman soldiers were
called by the villages they came from, and naturally, the spelling became even
more warped."
She also elaborates further: "Far more ancestors are claimed to be
Huguenot than ever were, simply because the name sounds a bit odd, and because
these were attractive immigrants."
Eve McLaughlin, Varneys Press, May 1997
According to The Historical Research Center
the origin of the name is as follows:
"The French surname Quibel is occupational in
origin, deriving from the trade or profession pursued by initial bearer. In
this instance, the surname Quibell derives from the word "cubel" meaning "vat or cask" in the dialect
of the southwest of France.
Therefore, the progenitor of the surname Quibell was someone who was a seller
and buyer of vats or their contents, which in all probability was wine or
another beverage. The variant Quiblier would indicate
that the original bearer was a manufacturer of vats rather than a wine seller
or merchant in other goods. The production of wine has long been one of the
major industries of France,
78 of the 86 departments producing it in large quantities. Until 1878 France
easily led the world, but in the following years its vineyards were devastated
by phylloxera. France
and Italy now
produce half of the world-wide yield of wine. It is still racked into
containers according to the methods of the middle ages.
Other variants of the surname Quibell include Quibel,
Queval, Quevillon, Quenneville, Quickel, Quickelberghe and the archaic form Quiquil.
In French records of the surname Quibell and its variants, there is a reference
to Arnaud de Quiquil. On September 25, 1740, a child was baptised who was the son
of the nobleman Joseph Duplaa Garat,
a lawyer and Madame Catherine de Garat. The child,
born three days previous to the event, was named Thomas. Arnaud de Quiquil served as godfather while Anne de Laufarie, from Benus in Basse-Navarre was the godmother."
(There are a few other variations of this story floating around,
although the historical facts to support this appear rather limited!)
The French-German Quibel's
and Quibelle's
Notwithstanding the comments above, there
is a reasonably sized population of Quibel's and Quibelle's which appear to be of French origin. In
particular there are at least two non-English US
immigration references: "Quibelle JS. 25; port uncertain, 1839 778.5 P522 [Brasseax,

At least one other family of Quibel's migrated to Argentina
around 1850.
The 1891 Census for Newport, Pagnell in Buckinghamshire has a Virginia Quibel, a 26 year old Servant born in France.
A William E. Quibell a 51 year old Merchant born in Germany
also appears in the 1871 Census at Lower Grove, Putney, Wandsworth
in Middlesex.

Some of the better-known Quibell’s
Lord David John Kinsley Quibell (1879-1962)
Obituary from "The Times" - Lord Quibell outspoken Labour Peer.
Lord Quibell for many years a staunch servant of the Labour Party died last
night at his home in Scunthorpe. He was 82. The Right
Hon, David John Kinsley Quibell, first Baron Quibell of Scunthorpe,
in the County of Lincoln,
in the Peerage of the United Kingdom,
was born on December 21, 1879.
Though not given to boasting about his success in life, he was never secretive
regarding his humble beginnings. His only education, he would remind his
critics, had been acquired in an elementary school, from which, when still a
boy, he had gone to work on a farm. His next job was in a brickyard, but he did
not remain long, leaving to be-come apprenticed to bricklaying. Having learned
his trade, he was for some years a journeyman bricklayer, working to such
purpose that within a few years he set up for himself as a builder and
contractor in his native town of Scunthorpe.
He continued to take an active interest in his business throughout his public
career. Proud of his skill as a bricklayer, he had little patience with the
restrictive practices which stipulated the number of bricks a skilled tradesman
should be allowed to lay and not infrequently clashed with trade union
colleagues on the subject. Yet he was much concerned about the conditions and
wages of the workers, and retained his union card long after he became an
employer. Powerfully built, he never hesitated to say what he thought and in
his early days was one of the most forceful propagandists of the Independent
Labour Party. Though his speeches were usually spiced with humour he was
generally more than a match for hecklers. He was for some years a member of
Scunthorpe Union District Council and first Labour Party member to become its Chairman.
He was also a member of the Lindsey County Council and a Justice of the Peace
for Lindsey, Lincolnshire, and
Flintshire and a past president of the Scunthorpe Co-operative Society. His
determination to represent his own locality in Parliament was so strong that he
contested the Brigg Division no fewer than six times, four without success.
Eventually, in 1929, he secured election, but two years later his political
career was interrupted, and he did not return to the House of Commons until
1935. He represented the constituency during the next 10 years, and was
elevated to the Peerage in the Dissolution Honours in recognition of his
political and public services. From 1942 to 1945 he was a member of the
Forestry Commission. Of all the honours conferred upon him none gave him
greater satisfaction than that which made him the first Freeman of his native
borough of Scunthorpe. He was also Mayor of Scunthorpe
in the Coronation Year of 1953. Quibell married first in 1901 Edith Jane
daughter of J. Foster of Scunthorpe, by whom he had one
daughter. His first wife died in 1953 and the following year he married
secondly Catherine Cameron Rae.
James Edward Quibell (1867-1935)
Obituary from "The Times" - Mr. James Quibell, who died recently at
the age of 68, was a distinguished archaeologist and for many years Keeper of
the Egyptian Museum in Cairo. The eldest son of Mr. John Quibell, of Newport,
Shropshire, he was educated at Newport
Grammar School, and went up to Christ
Church, Oxford,
as an exhibitioner in 1884. He obtained honours in classical moderations and in
natural science, and after taking his degree taught for a few years. It was
while travelling with one of his pupils that he visited Egypt,
which changed the whole trend of his life. He was fascinated by the
antiquities, and offered himself as a pupil to Professor Petrie, with whom he
had worked at Coptos in 1893, then at Nagada, Buleas, Thebes,
El Kab, and Hierakopoulos
in successive years. After six months' study at Berlin
University he was appointed to the
Catalogue Commission of the Egyptian Museum,
and in 1899 as an inspector on the staff of the Antiquities Department, his
colleague being Mr. Howard Carter. Four years he spent as inspector in the
northern half of Egypt,
and then he went for a winter to America,
where he erected an exhibit at the Worlds's Fair at St.
Louis. After that he had a year in Upper
Egypt, mostly taken up by the finding of the tomb of Yuia and Thuia. From this work
Mr. Quibell was sent to Sakkara to start new
excavations, and there he worked for nine years till he was made Keeper of the
Museum in 1913. Officially he remained Keeper until his retirement in 1925,
though for the last two years Mr. C.C. Edgar did the work in the museum and Mr.
Quibell took over the work of Mr. G. Daressy as
Secretary-General to M. Lacau, Director-General of
the Antiquities Department. Mr. Quibell married in 1900 Miss Annie A. Pirie,
daughter of Principal Pirie, of Aberdeen
University; she was also a
well-known archaeologist and a gifted writer. Her book, "A Wayfarer in Egypt",
is an admirable guide to Ancient Egypt. During the War Mr. Quibell gave many
talks to the soldiers stationed in Cairo,
also taking parties round the museum and showing them the treasures there.
These were very much appreciated and led to friendship with many people in the
far corners of the earth. Mr. Quibell had been in poor health since his wife's
death in 1927, but for the last four years he had been able to winter in Egypt
and to continue the work he loved until the end. He was the soul of loyalty and
had a great gift for friendship, as his friends in many parts of the world can
testify
Annie Abernethie (Pirie) Quibell (1862-1927)
Obituary from "The Times" - Mrs. J. E. Quibell. The death of Mrs. J.
E. Quibell, which took place recently at Cambridge must have come as a shock
to the large circle of her friends in Egypt,
in England, and
abroad, all unaware of the serious nature of her illness. Mrs. Quibell, who had
lived mainly in Egypt
for the last 30 years, came of a distinguished family in Aberdeen,
where her father was Principal of the University and her brother professor of
mathematics. After studying painting in Paris, she went out in 1895 to Egypt to
work under Professor Flinders Petrie; she made drawings with Miss Paget, of the
tomb of Ptahhoteb, which she published, helped in the
excavation of the Ramesseum, and then, in sucessive years, in the digging at Ey
Kab and Kom el Ahmar (Hieraconpolis). After her
marriage in 1900 she entered wholeheartedly into the interests of her husband,
then Inspector in the Antiquities Department of the Egyptian Government; in
1904, for example, though not holding any official position, doing a great part
of the work of the installation of an Egyptian Exhibition at the St. Louis
Fair. The next year, spent at Luxor,
resulted in the discovery of the wonderful tomb of Yuia
and Thuia. Then followed eight years of strenuous
work at Sakkara, during which Mrs. Quibell made most of
the drawings, both in line and colour, which were published in her husband's reports
on the excavations; those of the tomb of Hesi and on
the sixth-century monastery of Jeremias being perhaps
of the most general interest. After Mr. Quibell took over the Keepership of the
Cairo Museum
at the end of 1913 Mrs. Quibell had less opportunity for archaeological work,
and with the outbreak of the War her energies were diverted into other
channels, much time being devoted to canteen work and the organisation of
outings for invalid soldiers. For them she published a series of little guides to
the Pyramids, to Sakkara, and to the Cairo
Museum. These were much
appreciated, and in 1925 her charming "Wayfarer in Egypt"
was published. Mrs. Quibell was interested in a variety of forms of social
service, but perhaps the institution whose welfare she had most at heart was
the Y.W.C.A. in Cairo, of which she
was president and a leading spirit; it is largely due to her practical sympathy
and administrative genius that this body has of recent years accomplished such
excellent work. Innumerable visitors to Egypt
from all parts of the world must have grateful memories of her wonderful
hospitality in Sakkara, where under desert conditions
and dependent for supplies on the uncertainty of camel or donkey transport, the
exercise of such hospitality involved no small degree of generalship.
Major Samuel Boyd Quibell (1890-1916)
Obituary from "The Times" - Major Sam. B. Quibell, 4th East Yorkshire
Regiment (T.F.), who died of wounds in France
on February 5, was the eldest son of Mr. And Mrs. Oliver Quibell, of Shalem Lodge, Newark.
He was educated at the Magnus Grammar
School, and the Leys
School, Cambridge.
On leaving school, he joined his grandfather Mr. J.H. Holmes, the head of the
firm of Messrs. Thomas Holmes and Son, tanners, of Hull.
He had been in the Cadet Corps at school, and while at Hull
obtained a commission in the 4th East Yorkshire Regiment (T.F.) six years ago.
He was gazetted captain when 22, and attained his majority on the field, and
being only 24 years old was the youngest major in the Territorial Force. He
went to the front with his regiment on April 23 and took part in the second
battle of Ypres, after which he was the senior officer,
the commanding officer and 17 officers of the battalion having been either
killed or wounded. He was wounded twice within three weeks. On the first
occasion, while helping wounded officers of another regiment to a dressing
station, he received a slight wound in the neck. He recovered within a few
days, and returned to duty, but soon afterwards he suffered a gunshot wound in
the chest, which proved fatal. A brother officer writes :--
"We shall miss him greatly, but his cheery example will not leave us, and
he will be present to encourage us on to do our bit as he did his. He was
cheerful even in our greatest trial, and we feel we must do our utmost to feel
the same, although it is most difficult."
William
Oliver Quibell (1833-1897)
Obituary "Newark Advertiser" - Mr. William Oliver Quibell was born at
Gateford, near Worksop, in 1833 and was therefore
nearing his 64th year. His family had been farmers for generations in the Newark
area, but he was articled to Mr. Harvey. Eight years later he became a partner
in the firm, which was thenceforth known as Harvey & Quibell. The business
was originally founded by the late Mr. James SNOW
in 1814. On the death of Mr. John HARVEY the style was changed to Quibell
Brothers, Mr. Thomas O. Quibell having joined some years previously. Two sons
of Alderman Quibell have since entered the business.
The deceased was a Wesleyan Methodist and had filled most of the offices
open to a layman in that Church. For a number of years he was a lay reader and
a class-leader. He had been Circuit Steward and at the time of his death was
district Treasurer of the Foreign Missionary Society. He was elected a
representative to the conference held at Bradford in
1878, the first to which laymen were admitted. Three times since, he was one of
the 18 laymen chosen by the Conference itself to be members of the
Representative Session. To the last, he took the deepest interest in the work
of the Church. The new Sunday Schools which the Wesleyans are going to build
were constantly in his mind during the last part of his life, and he gladly
contributed towards the cost".
He was for years a prominent member of the School Board of the Board of
Guardians, a member of the Town Council and an Alderman. In 1884 he was chosen
Mayor. Appointed a J.P. for the Borough some years ago, he frequently attended
the Bench, always administering Justice with impartiality and tempering it with
mercy.
Since his death, the Town Hall flag has been at half-mast, also those at the
Ram Hotel and on other buildings in the town.
Under a memorial window in Barnby-gate
Methodist Church
is the inscription: "To the glory of God and in loving memory of William
Oliver Quibell, Mayor of Newark 1884-5, this window is dedicated by his
daughter Eleanor Mary Bainbridge. He was a devout Christian and an earnest
Wesleyan Methodist, who served his Church faithfully in every lay office.
Oliver
Quibell (1863-1945)
Oliver Quibell was the eldest son of William Oliver Quibell, above, and
Eleanor Boyd Berrie who was born on 27th
October 1863 and baptised on 30th November 1863 at Barnby-gate Wesleyan Church.
On 9th November 1906
he was appointed a Borough Magistrate. "…A
prominent Liberal and nonconformist, a member of the Education Committee &
the Free Library Committee, he has represented the East Ward for three
years. He is a partner of Quibell Bros.
and Vice President of the Newark Division Liberal Association". In November 1907, and again a year later he
was elected Mayor. Kelly's 1912
Directory lists him as Councillor, E. Ward (retires November 1914) and
Magistrate.
Kate
Amelia Quibell (1884-1975)
Kate was the wife of Ernest Hall Quibell (1876-1926) who was a nephew of
William Oliver Quibell above. Kate
Amelia Quibell was the first woman elected to the Newark Council and became its
first woman Mayor in 1957. Kate Amelia married Ernest Hall Quibell on 25th October 1905. The Newark Herald which published a full account
of the proceedings which noted "….They will reside in Newark
at Beaumond House, recently occupied by Mr. Hervey".
Her local politics career began in June 1935, when she stood for the Town
Council in the South Ward, being elected 638 to 490, in the process becoming
the first woman to sit on the Council.
In the following year she was returned unopposed for the South
Ward. In October 1945 she announced that
she was not seeking re-election for the South Ward to the Town Council, then,
in the following February that she had joined the Labour Party and intended to
contest the North Division of the County.
In April 1954 Kate returned to Newark
local politics standing in the North Ward for the Town Council and was
elected. In March 1956 she unsuccessfully
stood in the Labour interest for Mayor, but her second attempt in 1967
succeeded, and she became Newark's
first woman Mayor. She was again elected
for the North Ward in April 1958 and became Deputy Mayor.
