About the Miers Surname

The last name Miers is another written form of Myers, an English family name.

Only a small detail separates the spellings: Miers has “i” where Myers has “y”. Spellings drifted because names were written down by ear in parish books, tax rolls and passenger lists.

A coat of arms belongs to a particular family line rather than to everyone named Miers, so the heraldry linked to Myers is a starting point, not an automatic right. For the full story, order the Miers surname pack.
