Pelmounter Surname Meaning

From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

POLLAMOUNTER, var POLAMONTER, POLOMOUNTER, POLLOMOUNTER, POLAMOUNTAIN, POLLAMOUNTAIN, PILLAMONTAYNE: There are Polmanter Downs at St. Ives, and Pollamount in Pyder. According to D. Gilbert, the Polamonters are from Pollamonter in Newland. Tonkin, under Newlin, says Pallamaunter or Polmaunter was formerly a gentleman's seat, and gave name to an ancient family since removed to Trevyzick, in St. Columb Minor. One of the oldest orthographies of this surname was Pillamontayne. The name may mean the head of the mountain, from pol, a head. Pil is a little hillock, a sea ditch, a trench filled at high water; and pill is a manor or lordship.
