About Clan Norvel

Norvel (also Norval, Norvell, Norwell) is a surname of Anglo-Norman origin, likely derived from Normanville or Norville in France and brought to Britain around the Norman Conquest. In Scotland the name is recorded heraldically as "Norvel and all that Ilk," with Robert Norvyle documented witnessing a Scottish land transfer in 1373. It denotes a landed family name rather than an independent Highland- or Lowland-style clan, and no chief is associated with it.
