Name Meaning
Altered form of Taliaferro , a surname of Italian origin which spread to the US from England. Today both principal forms of the surname, Taliaferro and Tolliver, are virtually non-existing in Britain. Compare Toliver and English Telfer .
History: The VA family of Taliaferro or Tolliver are descended from London-born Robert Taliaferro or Tolliver, who settled in VA by 1647. He was the grandson of a Venetian, Bartholomew Taliaferro, who had settled in London by 1562. Between 1651 and 1673 Robert patented several sizeable holdings in Gloucester County, England. He married Sarah Grimes, the daughter of an Anglican priest, and had one daughter and four sons, all of whom produced large and prosperous families.
