Certainly the name is location-oriented, arising in the town of Markwell in Cornwall (suburb of Plymouth).
I believe "Peter de Markwell" was the first recorded user of the name.
While Fred Markwell, then head of the British Heraldic Society, once told me the town's first name, my recollection is "Al Myrches Wyl" - or the like (referring to the location of a well.
Hope that helps.
