Where did the French Page family come from? What is the French Page family crest and coat of arms? When did the Page family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the Page family history?
During that dark period of history known as the Middle Ages, the name of Page was first used in France. While the patronymic and metronymic surnames, which are derived from the name of the father and mother respectively, are the most common form of a hereditary surname in France, occupational surnames also emerged during the late Middle Ages. Many people, such as the Page family, adopted the name of their occupation as their surname. However, an occupational name did not become a hereditary surname until the office or type of employment became hereditary. The surname Page was an occupational name for a young servant to a nobleman who was in the first stage of training for knighthood. Such a servant was known in Old French as a page.
