The surname Gemeiner was first found in Normandy (French: Normandie), the former Duchy of Normandy, where the family has been a prominent family for centuries, and held a family seat with lands and manor. The family were well established in the region of Calvados at that time.
Geoffrey Gaimar (fl. 1140?), wrote a history of England in French verse, extending from the time of King Arthur's successors to the death of William II. "His errors in interpreting the 'Anglo-Saxon Chronicle Chronicle,' on which most of his history is based, render it probable that he was a Norman by birth, and he may have derived his name from a suburb of Caen, anciently known as Gaimara, and now Gémare.
