Turbet History, Family Crest & Coats of ArmsTurbet is one of the many names that the Normans brought with them when they conquered England in 1066. The name Turbet came from the Norman given name Terbert. Early Origins of the Turbet familyThe surname Turbet was first found in Yorkshire where they held a family seat. The definition that the name was derived from the name of a fish can be discounted as Victorian historians whimsical nonsense. The family held a family seat in Yorkshire and was a noble name during the time of King Richard 1st (about 1190 A.D.) and all indications are that this was a Norman name which appeared in the Domesday Book, 1 a survey of England taken by Duke William of Normandy in the year 1086 A.D., after his conquest of England in 1066 A.D. and appears as Turbert, a person holding lands.
