The Tickle Trees Website

TICKLE / TICKEL / TICKELL FAMILIES WORLDWIDE


This website is part of a one-name study of  the surnames Tickle, Tickell and Tickel. If you are one of us, welcome to the site!

A one-name study researches all occurrences of these surnames, wherever they are found. My aim is to try to answer questions such as:

  • Where did the surname/s originate? 
  • How did the names spread around the world?
  • Are different family lines connected?

There are two distinct sources of the surname – some Tickles have English ancestors, while others have German ones. You can find out more in the Origins page.

A major focus of the site is stories about individuals and families from the past. If you have a story to share about your ancestors, please get in touch with me. I’d love to hear from you.

… and if you want to find out more about who I am and why I’m interested in the name, click here.
