Allsopp Genealogy: Unravelling Family Histories

Let’s dive into the fascinating world of genealogy and explore Allsopp Genealogy.

Allsopp Genealogy is a treasure trove for researchers, history enthusiasts, and anyone curious about their Allsopp roots.

The Allsopp name and its variants (Alsop, Allsop, Alsopp, etc.) trace back to Alsop-en-le-Dale, a village nestled in Derbyshire, England. Imagine the rolling hills, ancient stone cottages, and the whispers of generations past. It’s here, around 900-1000 AD, that the Allsopp lineage began its journey.

During the convict period of the early 1800s the Allsopp legacy took root down under. William Alsop, a brave soul (or perhaps a bit of a rogue), arrived in New South Wales from England in 1790 aboard the ship Surprise as part of the Second Fleet. Many followed, both as convicts and free settlers alike. The Allsopp story intertwines with the rugged Australian landscape, gold rushes, and the forging of new lives.

On this site can be found articles on the Brewery of Samuel Allsop and Sons, Coats of Arms, and more. Ever wondered about the Allsopp Coat of Arms? Well, my friend, it’s a bit like asking which Allsopp you’re referring to—there are variations aplenty!
