Early Origins of the Bareiss family

The surname Bareiss was first found in Austria, where the name could be considered to have made a major contribution to the feudal society which became the backbone of early development of Europe. The name became prominent in local affairs and branched into many houses which played important roles in tribal and national conflicts, as each group sought power and status in an ever-changing territorial profile. The actual origin of the name is unusual; it was a mediaeval designation for a person who had lived or worked in Paris, France. Burkhart von Baris lived in Breisgau in 1279.
