Savoie Family History
Savoie Name Meaning
French: regional name from the region (former kingdom) of Savoy,
French Savoie. This was consolidated in the 11th century by
Count Humbert the White-handed, feudal lord of the kingdom of
Arles. His descendants formed the great European noble house of Savoy,
with large holdings in France, Switzerland, and Italy. Piedmont was
closely connected with Savoy as early as the 11th century, since
Humbert acquired a number of possessions there through marriage.
