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

The present generation of the Fauth family is only the most recent to bear a name that dates back to the ancient Anglo-Saxon culture of Britain. Their name comes from having lived at or near a forth, which is an area of the river that is shallow enough to be crossed by wading. The word forth developed into the modern English word ford.

Until the dictionary, an invention of only the last few hundred years, the English language lacked any comprehensive system of spelling rules. Consequently, spelling variations in names are frequently found in early Anglo-Saxon and later Anglo-Norman documents. One person's name was often spelled several different ways over a lifetime. The recorded variations of Fauth include Forth, Forthe, Fourth, Fourthe, Forith, Foryth and many more.

First found in Suffolk where they held a family seat from very early times.

Thousands of English families boarded ships sailing to the New World in the hope of escaping the unrest found in England at this time. Although the search for opportunity and freedom from persecution abroad took the lives of many because of the cramped conditions and unsanitary nature of the vessels, the opportunity perceived in the growing colonies of North America beckoned. Many of the settlers who survived the journey went on to make important contributions to the transplanted cultures of their adopted countries. The Fauth were among these contributors, for they have been located in early North American records:
