Dovale Surname Meaning

User-submitted Reference

This surname comes from the Provence of Galicia in Spain. It could be of Jewish origin, emanating from the Jewish regions of Spain and Portugal, when much of the Jewish population was sent into exile by the Romans in 70 CE. Many of them also voluntary converted to Catholicism, for fear of banishment by Ferdinand and Isabella in 1492. My father always said the name meant 'of the valley' in Galician, as that is the Provence of Spain where my family has recently hailed from.
