The last name Shepard is of Anglo-Saxon origin. It is an occupational name for a shepherd from an Olde English pre 7th Century word "sceap", meaning sheep, and "hierde", which means herdsman.
Among the recorded examples of the name in London is the christening of Jone Shepherd in 1585. Samuell Shepherd was an early emigrant to the American colonies, leaving London on the "Defence" in July 1635, bound for New England.
A very distinctive Coat of Arms granted to a Shepherd family of Devonshire depicts a black shield, thereon three pascal lambs.
The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of William Sepherd, which was dated 1279 in Oxfordshire.
