In Galicia, the surname is in use at least since the 14th century. History In the Americas, the name first appears in documents dating to around 1675.

Edward R
Edward is an English given name. It is derived from the Anglo-Saxon name ''Ēadweard'', composed of the elements '' ēad'' "wealth, fortune; prosperous" and '' weard'' "guardian, protector”.
