In summary: Multiculturalism means that we all have needs and desires; we have likes and dislikes. We are different but there is nothing wrong or threatening in that difference. We are all seeking a better life for ourselves and future generations and there is no place for an âus and themâ mentality in our society, today or in the future.
A churl (etymologically the same name as Charles / Carl and Old High German karal), in its earliest Old English (Anglo-Saxon) meaning, was simply a man, and more particularly a husband, but the word soon came to mean a non-servile peasant, still spelled Äeorl(e), and denoting the lowest rank of freemen.
The name derives from the Olde English pre 7th century ceorl meaning a peasant or serf and tun a farm or settlement. The Olde English ceorlatun meant settlement of the peasants. The surname is first recorded towards the end of the 12th century. One Hugh de Charleton is recorded in Northumberland (1333). In 1588 a John Charlton, of Tatton, appears in 'The Wills Records at Chester'. In the modern idiom the name has four spelling variations: Charlton, Charleton, Chorlton and Carlton.
