The Tremblay name originates in France in the Normandy region. The earliest known Tremblay is Bernard de Tremblay who died in 1155. Next we find records in 1167 of a Guillaume de Tremblay who made a gift of avast domain of land to the Trappist monastery.

TRANSLATED FROM FRENCH:
FIRST TREMBLAY, DON' T FILIATION IS CERTAIN, LIVED ON THE GROUNDS OF THE ABBEY... A MAN ADVANCES WITH GREAT STEPS ON THE ROUGH AND COLD PATH WHICH CARRIES OUT TO THE MONASTERY OF THE TRAP DOOR. A LONG TIME IT GOES ALONG THE FRILEUX PONDS WHICH OCCUPY THE FUNDS OF SMALL VALLEY OF THIS REGION. THE LARGE GROVE OF THE BEECHES, STRIPPED ITS FOLIATION, HAS NOTHING ANY MORE AS AN ORNAMENT BUT SOME GREEN TUFTS OF GUI. HERE AND THERE, OF VAST DEFORESTED BREAKS, THAT THE MONKS PUT IN CULTURE OR LEFT IN PASTURES FOR THEIR HERDS OF MILCH COWS. IT IS POSSIBLE TO SEE WITH FAR SOME FROM THESE HARD AND QUIET WORKERS CURVED ON THE GLÈBE. IT IS ON JANUARY 26, 1389. GILLES OF TREMBLAY COMES TO RETURN HIS CONSENT OF THE GROUND WHICH IT HAD WITH THE STRONGHOLD OF CHESNAY IN FRONT OF THE LORD-ABBOT, WHO IS BEING THEN JEAN-OLIVIER PARISY, KNOWN AS MANSEL. THE STRONGHOLD OF CHESNAY (2) SEEMS TO RAISE OF THE LARGE SEIGNIORY OF BUBERTRÉ (3) LOCATED BETWEEN THE FIELDS OF THE TRAP DOOR AND OF TOUROUVRE. THEREFORE, DOES MAKE LIKE VASSAL, OR QUITE SIMPLY BECAUSE OF A REVENUE WHICH OBLIGES IT TOWARDS THE MONASTERY? IT IS HARDLY POSSIBLE TO EXCEPT DISTINGUISH THE EXACT NATURE OF THIS OBLIGATION THAT AGAIN, MAY 25, 1393, IT BRINGS BACK THE SIOR OF BUBERTRÉ AND CHESNAY ON THE SPOT, MAKING THE SAME STEP FOR A SUM OF THREE PENNIES OF REVENUE.
