Waite Genealogy & History

Waite stems from the old Norman/French word waite and the Old French word guait, indicating an occupational name for a watchman of a community or secured place. Some variations in spelling include Wayte, Waight, and Waits. John Waite was the first known to migrate to Boston, Massachusetts in 1630. Waite family history shows Roger le Wayte to be the first known recording of the name in the County Records of Suffolk, England in 1221. Some members in Waite genealogy include Archbishop of Canterbury Terence Hardy (Terry) Waite; National Hockey League goaltender Jimmy Waite; and racing car driver Colonel Arthur Waite.
