The origin of the Haskell name is discussed at length in Haskells in North America. One leading theory holds that the name descends from the “housecarls” — the name King Canute gave his personal bodyguards about 1016 AD. Royal housecarls in England are remembered for fighting under Harold Godwinson at the Battle of Hastings. It is for that reason that the association’s highest class of membership carries their name.
