Shemwell Vad efternamn betyder
English (Derbyshire and Staffordshire): clearly a habitational name from a placename meaning ‘shining stream’ (Middle English shim + well) but this has not been definitely located. There is a Shining Well in Darley Dale (Derbyshire) known from an 1836 map and the surname may derive from an earlier name for that.
