The name Nuckols is a surname of English/Scottish descent. Coming from the English/Scottish surname Nicol or Nichol, other common variants in America include Nuccol, Nuckol, Nuckols, Nuckolls, Knuckolls, and Knuckles. The earliest American "Nuckols" appears to be James Nuccol, who emigrated from in 1650. Nuckols lore indicates that the family's emblem is the white rose, stemming from the family's support of the house of York during the War of the Roses a.k.a. the English Civil War. The story states that in 1455 Civil War broke out in England, with the house of York leading one faction and the house of Lancaster leading the other. The emblem of York was the white rose, that of Lancaster, the red rose. One family that sided with York in that long struggle was named Nuckolls. After many years, some of this family emigrated to America and settled in Virginia, bringing with them a rose started from a cutting of the original white rose of York. Today, people possessing variations of the original surname live in many states; however, most remain concentrated in (Virginia ), Kentucky, and Missouri. The surname "Nuckols" is particularly prevalent in central Virginia, especially Goochland, Henrico, and Richmond counties; Nuckols Road is a relatively major thoroughfare in Goochland, VA. James Nuccol is a signatory party to the "(Blissland Complaint )", a 1676-1677 document created in secret ("since it was unlawful for people to meet without notifying the lawful authorities") which sought to mitigate the excessive taxation without representation imposed by the British Crown on 17th Century, rural Virginia. For this reason, the Blissland Complaint is considered a pre-1776 revolution. William "The Patriot" Nuckols (1710 - 1796) is (recognized ) for Patriotic Service for the provision of beef and other supplies to the Continental Army during the Revolution. As such, descendants of William "The Patriot" Nuckols are eligible for admission to the Daughters of the American Revolution and Sons of the American Revolution.
