Wynn Genealogy & Family Tree

Wynn is a Welsh name from Carnarvonshire, Wales. It comes from the Welsh word gwyn which means "white" or "fair" and referred to someone with a pale complexion or who often wore this color of clothing. The earliest known ancestor--Osketel Wyn--was recorded in 1199. The family motto is Sauviter in modo, fortiter in re which means "Gentle in manner, firm in act."

Other spellings include "Wynne," "Wyn," "Win," "Winn," and "Winne." Notable people with the surname include American football player DeShawn Wynn (Green Bay Packers, New Orleans Saints, San Francisco 49ers), American actor Keenan Wynn (Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, The Great Race, Once Upon a Time in the West), and American football player Will Wynn (Philadelphia Eagles, Washington Redskins). The first Wynn to come to America was Joe Wynn in Virginia in 1635.
