Name Meaning

English: habitational name from Smethwick in Staffordshire, Smethwick Green near Brereton Heath (Cheshire), or a lost place called Smithwick in Southover (Sussex). The placename means ‘the farm of the smith(s)’, from Old English smith ‘smith’ + wīc ‘dwelling, specialized farm’. This surname has also been established in southern Ireland since the 17th century.
