Where did the German Junk family come from? What is the German Junk family crest and coat of arms? When did the Junk family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Junk family history?
The distinguished German surname Junk is derived from the Middle High German word "juncherre," meaning "a young noble, not yet knighted." This term was often applied to a young man serving at court who would soon be knighted, and it is likely that the term evolved from nickname to surname, and was then passed down along a family line.
