Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Huger family history? The Anglo-Saxons of Britain first developed the name Huger. It was a name given to someone who was a keeper of cattle and pigs. The surname Huger originally derived from the Old English word hog-garth.Spelling variations in names were a common occurrence before English spelling was standardized a few hundred years ago. In the Middle Ages, even the literate spelled their names differently as the English language incorporated elements of French, Latin, and other European languages. Many variations of the name Huger have been found, including Hogarth, Hoggart, Hoggarth, Hoggard, Hoggarde and others. First found in Westmorland where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.

Among the first immigrants of the name Huger, or a variant listed above to cross the Atlantic and come to North America were: Huger Settlers in the United States in the 17th Century

The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto. Motto: Candor dat viribus alas Motto Translation: Truth gives wings to strength.
