England
Early Origins of the Alle familyThe surname Alle was first found in Worcestershire where they held a family seat as Lords of the Manor. The Saxon influence of English history diminished after the Battle of Hastings in 1066. The language of the courts was French for the next three centuries and the Norman ambience prevailed. But Saxon surnames survived and the family name was first referenced in the 13th century when they held estates in that shire.

| Alle migration to the United States | + |
At this time, the shores of the New World beckoned many English families that felt that the social climate in England was oppressive and lacked opportunity for change. Thousands left England at great expense in ships that were overcrowded and full of disease. A great portion of these settlers never survived the journey and even a greater number arrived sick, starving, and without a penny. The survivors, however, were often greeted with greater opportunity than they could have experienced back home. These English settlers made significant contributions to those colonies that would eventually become the United States and Canada. An examination of early immigration records and passenger ship lists revealed that people bearing the name Alle arrived in North America very early:
Alle Settlers in United States in the 18th Century- Jean Alle, who arrived in New York in 1725 1
- Jean Francois Alle, who landed in America in 1783 1
Alle Settlers in United States in the 19th Century- Juan Alle, aged 19, who arrived in New Orleans, La in 1830 1
