Facts About
Power
This surname is thought to be a locational name which comes from the Old French word ‘Pohier’ which symbolised a native individual from the French town of Pois in Picardy. Names like this were given to people in case they relocated and it is thought that this name was brought over to England as a result of the Norman invasion in 1066. However, the name could also have come from the Old French word ‘pois’ which means fish and therefore given to people who were fishermen for a living or lived near a body of water home to fish. |
