Smith Family Coat of Arms
Recorded in the spellings of Smith,
Smithe, Smythe, and the patronymics
Smiths, and Smithson, this is the most
popular surname in the English speaking
world by a considerable margin. Of pre
7th century Anglo-Saxon origins, it
derives from the word 'smitan' meaning
'to smite' and as such is believed to
have described not a worker in iron,
but a soldier, one who smote.
