Where did the Spanish Rosario family come from? What is the Spanish coat of arms/family crest? When did the Rosario family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the history of the family name?

The Spanish surname Rosario is of local origin, being one of those surnames based on the place where original bearers of the name once lived or held land. In this case, the name was originally used to indicate that the bearer was "a native of Rosario." The name is derived from the Latin "rosarium," which literally means "a beautiful garden of roses." Thus, the town of Rosario was named due to its reputation for the beautiful flora that characterizes that area.

Spelling variations of this family name include: Rosarius, Rosal, Rosa, Rosales, Del Rosario and others.

First found in the region of Burgos in Old Castille, in northern Spain.
