Soltan-genealogia brytyjska

Origin Displayed: English

Where did the English Soltan family come from? What is the English coat of arms/family crest? When did the Soltan family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the history of the family name?
Before English spelling was standardized a few hundred years ago, spelling variations of names were a common occurrence. Elements of Latin, French and other languages became incorporated into English through the Middle Ages, and name spellings changed even among the literate. The variations of the surname Soltan include Sowdon, Sowden, Sowton, Sowten and others.
First found in Devonshire where they were seated from very ancient times, as Lords of the manor of Sowton, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.
A great wave of immigration to the New World was the result of the enormous political and religious disarray that struck England at that time. Families left for the New World in extremely large numbers. The long journey was the end of many immigrants and many more arrived sick and starving. Still, those who made it were rewarded with an opportunity far greater than they had known at home in England. These emigrant families went on to make significant contributions to these emerging colonies in which they settled. Some of the first North American settlers carried this name or one of its variants: John, Michael, and Benjamin Sowden who settled in Maryland in 1774; William Sowden arrived in Philadelphia Pa. in 1860; Mary Sowton settled in Maryland in 1737.
