Early Origins of the Bemer family

The surname Bemer was first found in Basel, where the name Bemmerer came from humble beginnings but gained a significant reputation for its contribution to the emerging mediaeval society. It later became more prominent as many branches of the same house acquired estates in new areas which, combined with their great contributions to society, succeeded in elevating their social status.
