Harvey Family History
Harvey Genealogy & Family TreeHarvey is an English name from Norfolk, England, where the family was granted a seat by Duke William of Normandy in the 11th Century for their aid in the Battle of Hastings. It comes from the Breton given name Haervie from the roots haer (“battle”) and vy (“worthy”) and was translated into Gaelic as Herve. It may also come from the Old Welsh Harrnbiu or the Old German Herewig. In recent years, it is often used as a given name. Roots for this name can also be found in France, Scotland, and Ireland. The family motto is Alteri, si tibi which means, “To another, if to myself.”
Other spellings include “Harvie,” “Harve,” “Hervey,” and “Hervie.” Notable people with the same surname include American comic book publisher Alfred Harvey (Casper the Friendly Ghost, Baby Huey, Little Dot), American baseball player Ken Harvey (Baltimore Orioles, Kansas City Royals), American football player Kenneth Harvey (Phoenix Cardinals, Washington Redskins), and American comedian and personality Steve Harvey (The Steve Harvey Show, Think Like a Man, The Original Kings of Comedy). The first Harvey to come to America was William Harvey in New England in 1630.
