The history of the last name Julmice

The surname Julmice has its origins in the historical region of Normandy in northern France, dating back to the 11th century.

It is believed to have been a descriptive surname given to someone who worked with oxen or had a physical resemblance to a mouse.

Some of the earliest recorded instances of the Julmice surname can be found in medieval French records and manuscripts. For example, a certain Robert Julmice was mentioned in the Cartulaire de l'Abbaye de Saint-Germain-des-Prés, a collection of charters from the Saint-Germain-des-Prés Abbey in Paris, dating back to the year 1152.
