Gorbould Family
The Gorbould/Gorbold family name appears to originate from the
Wroxham St. Faith parish, in Norfolk, UK. The name is still quite
rare in the UK, which has helped to trace it.
In my immediate family line, the name has not continued. The name
does still exist in the Wroxham area, but we have not yet established the
connection.
Furthermore, the name does exist in the Newcastle area. We have
been able to connect this branch to our own, and have determined that a
James Gorbould moved from Norfolk to Newcastle some time around
1873. This link was established by cross-referencing against the
on-line 1901 census.
This branch is closely linked to the Rumbelow name.
