Before the last few hundred years, the English language had no fast system of spelling rules. For that reason, spelling variations are commonly found in early Anglo-Saxon surnames. Over the years, many variations of the name Dawe were recorded, including Dawes, Dawe, Daw, Daws, Douwes, Dohse and others.

First found in Lancashire where they held a family seat from very ancient times.

In droves people migrated to the many British colonies, those in North America in particular, paying high rates for passages in cramped, unsafe ships.

Many of the families that came from England went on to make essential contributions to the emerging nations of Canada and the United States. Research into various historical records revealed some of first members of the Dawe family emigrate to North America:
