ABAROA There are farms with this name in Bizkaia. In
Pedernales-Sukarrieta there are 7 houses or farms with this name ( Abaroa,
Abaroa-barrena, Abaroa-etxebarria, Abaroa-goikoa etc..). There are also
farms with this name in Nabarniz and Sopelana. There have been branches in
Mundaka, Lekeitio, Amoroto etc (all in Bizkaia) and there was a branch in
Gipuzkoa
Meaning: Grove or wooded ground, a place to refuge cattle
Coat of Arms : There are various, but as the requester says that his family
came from Bermeo, I transcribe the coat of the Abaroa of Mundaka: En
plata, tres arboles de sinople terrasados de lo mismo y puestos en
situacion de faja; en el jefe dos llaves de azur puestas en aspa, con los
ojos boca abajo y liadas de gules.
