Auchinvole Surname Meaning

From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

A now uncommon surname derived from Auchinvole in the parish of Kirkintilloch. The name occurs in Edinburgh in 1625 as Achinwall (Edinb. Marr.). Thomas Auchinvale, born in Drumfrochare (an error for Drumtrochar, near Kilsyth) had a birth-brief from the magistrates of Stirling in 1614 on his departing to reside on the continent. He is probably the Thomas Auchinvale who settled in Elbing in Prussia and died there in 1653. His great-great-grandson, Gottfried Achenwall (d. 1772), was professor of international law at Gottingen (Fischer I, p. 228). Alexander Auchinval in the parish of Monyabroch is in record in 1658 (Stirling). The name of John Achinwells, servitor to John Miller in Edinburgh in 1636 (RPC., 2. ser. VI p. 359) is probably from the same source, as likewise that of John Auchtenvallis, clerk in Dunfermline, 1651 (Sf. Andrews).
