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

During that dark period of history known as the Middle Ages, the name of Pajot 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 Pajot 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 Pajot 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.
