Vereker Family History
Vereker Name Meaning
of uncertain meaning but of Flemish (Dutch) origin. It was borne by a First Minister of Brabant in the 16th century and was established in the county of Limerick Ireland in the later 17th century possibly as a result of migration due to religious persecution. It is not absolutely certain that the bearers of European origin mentioned here in England share this name. There is no connection with the Somerset name Fouracre as sometimes alleged.
