Taylor Family History and Genealogy
0 - Default Title
Description
The Taylor surname has roots entrenched in the aftermath of the Norman invasion of England in the year 1066. The Normans were of French origin. They were descendants of the Vikings who had settled in the northern region of France, which came to be known as Normandy. The Norman dynasty originated with the Viking chieftain Rollo (also known as Rolf) who was granted the territory of Normandy by the Frankish king Charles the Simple in the early 10th century. Over time, the Normans adopted the French language, culture, and customs, although they retained some Norse heritage as well. In 1066, William the Conqueror, a descendant of the Norman dynasty, led the Norman invasion of England and subsequently became the first Norman king of England.
The meaning of the surname Taylor is speculated to stem from the French word for "tailor", signifying a lineage of craftsmen and artisans. Through the corridors of time the Taylor name proliferates, becoming a familiar echo across the landscapes of the United Kingdom and continents around the world.
