Montgomery Family History
Montgomery Genealogy & Family TreeMontgomery is a Scottish name from Renfrewshire, Scotland, where the oldest known Montgomery ancestor—Roger de Montgomery, first Earl of Shrewsbury—brought his family from Normandy when he arrived in England with William the Conqueror. It may come from the place name Gomer’s Hill (or the Latin Mons Gomeris), and was then translated to the Gaelic Mac Gumaraid. It may also come from the Germanic guma (man) and ric (power). In recent years, it is sometimes used as a given name. The family motto is Gardez bien which means “Look well.”
Other spellings include “Mongomery,” “Montgomerie,” and “Mungummery.” Notable people with the same surname include American jazz musician “Little Brother” Montgomery, British actress Janet Montgomery (Black Swan, Our Idiot Brother, Salem), Australian actress Poppy Montgomery (Without a Trace, Blonde, Magic Beyond Words: The JK Rowling Story), American baseball player Bob Montgomery (Boston Red Sox), and American actress Elizabeth Montgomery (Bewitched). The first Montgomery to come to the Americas was Edmond Montgomery in Barbados in 1635.
