Where did the German Dawber family come from? What is the German Dawber family crest and coat of arms? When did the Dawber family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Dawber family history?

The name Dawber was born in the beautiful region of Bohemia, which is now part of Czechoslavakia. By and large, hereditary surnames were formed in Germany when areas of Bohemia, and most of the German states, were a part of the Holy Roman Empire. At this time, as the population of Europe swelled and travel became easier, people began to encounter others sharing their own name and they avoided confusion by adopting a second name. A common form of surname found in Bohemia are those that are derived from nicknames.
