Potter Family History
Recorded in various spellings including Podder, Potter, Powter, and Powder, this is an English surname. It is occupational for a maker of drinking and storage vessels, from the Olde English pre 7th century word "pott", itself derived from the Roman (Latin) "pottus," meaning drink or draught. Job descriptive surnames originally denoted the actual occupation of the namebearer, and became hereditary when a son followed a father into the same business or profession. In the Middle Ages the term "potter" covered workers in metal as well as earthenware and clay; the potter was sometimes a bell-founder. The surname has been variously recorded in England and early examples include Geoffrey Poter in the Curia Regis rolls of Leicestershire in 1196; John le Potier in the Pipe Rolls of Essex for 1197; and Lambert le Pottur in the Curia Regis rolls of Essex in 1214...Select Audience
