The derivation is from the Middle English "spore" or "spure", itself deriving from the Olde English pre 7th Century "spora" or "spura", meaning a spur. The surname from this source is frist recorded in the early half of the 13th Cenutry. An earlier form of the name, "Spureman", appears in the Norfolk Pipe Rolls c.1222. The marriage between 'Margaret Spoors' and 'Thomas Randell' was recorded on the 13th December 1802 at Christchurch, Spitalfields, London. In the modern idiom the name can be found in various forms: 'Spur(r), 'Spoor, Spore and Spurrier', while 'spores' and 'spoors are the patronymic (i.e. 'son of') forms. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Peter Spore or Spure. which was dated 1236, in the Sussex Pipe Rolls. during the reign of King Henry 111, known as the Frenchman, 1216 - 1272. Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax.
