About Yeoman
The surname Yeoman is of English origin and is derived from the Middle English term "yeman," meaning a servant or attendant. It was originally used to denote a freeholder who owned and cultivated a small piece of land. Over time, the term evolved to refer to a person of a lower social rank, often working as a servant or laborer. The surname Yeoman thus signifies someone who held this occupation or had connections to the yeomanry class in medieval England.
