Meyer (surname)
Meyer is an originally German, Dutch, and Jewish surname. With its numerous variants ( Myer, Meyr, Meier, Meijer, Mayer, Maier, Mayr, Mair, Miers, etc.), it is a common German surname. Its original meaning in Middle High German is from ''mei(g)er'', "manager (of a lord's country estate)", derived from Latin ''maior domus'', i.e. "headman of a household" (cf. mayor), later on also meaning "tenant" or "(free) farmer". It is therefore a rough equivalent of the English Steward, which has also been turned into surnames such as Stuart. This appellation was also frequently used to form longer, more specific surnames such as Bachmeier, Bergmair or Niedermeier. Some German Jews adopted ''Meyer'' or a variant thereof as a surname when they assimilated to German culture in the 18th century, as it is close to the Hebrew first name '' Me'ir'' (מֵאִיר), "shining, enlightened". Geographical distribution In 2014, the surname Meyer was most often found (by percentage of the p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Development and design The Meyer was in fact invented by Austrian engineer Wenzel Günther of the Wiener Neustädter Lokomotivfabrik for the Semmering Trials of 1851. However, the technology wasn't yet developed for the steam to be reliably transported to the bogies with reasonable amount of leaks, and despite generally good performance of the design on the trials the company abandoned the idea. It was reinvigorated by Frenchman Jean-Jacques Meyer (1804-1877), who took ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
