Montjoy

The Montjoy Family represented here by HE Lord William, Barony of Meridon and Seneschal of Montjoy. The name Mountjoy/Montjoy was brought to England in the wave of migration that followed the Norman Conquest of 1066. The Mountjoy family lived in Devon. The name, however, derives from the family's place of residence prior to the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, Montejoie, Normandy.
