About the Pepler One-Name Study

Like many others, I started researching one-name to find a missing ancestor.

I felt that if I collected all the Peplers into a big pile, sorted out the families and organized them, my Richard would float to the surface. After about five years and several thousand Peplers/Peplows, Richard emerged. It turned out that he was born a Peploe, married as a Pepler, appeared on the census as a Peploe again and died a Pepler.

The information I have found and the constructed families can be found on my Pepler Name website in the links section. There are pictures and stories from around the world that people have been generous enough to share with me. Major families groups are marked with small colored squares

Variants

This study is registered for the variants Peplar, Peplow, Peploe, Peppler and Peplo. I also consider Pepelowe, Pepplow, Peplor, Peplowe, and anything that has 2 P’s separated by a vowel and followed by an L. I do rule out those names that end in ‘ski’ and Peplaus are on the fence.

Because there is such a variation even in the life events of a single individual, I have a tendency to refer to the name as Peplxx. I am always surprised by the suffix .
