Halliwall Coat of Arms and Surname Origin

Spelled Halliwall, the surname still points back to Halliwell.

Surname dictionaries give the meaning as “holy well”. The two spellings differ in a small detail: Halliwall has “a” where Halliwell has “e”. Census takers and immigration officers often wrote what they heard.

Family crest and blazon

A coat of arms belongs to a particular family line rather than to everyone named Halliwall, so the heraldry linked to Halliwell is a starting point, not an automatic right. Names that sound alike, such as Helliwell, are easily confused in old records.
