People
Some of the Barnard family are believed to have been Huguenots (members of Protestant Reformed Church of France) who fled from the Atlantic coast region of France to England, Ireland, Holland and the New World circa 1685 (the time of the revocation of the edict of Nantes). See, [1]. The Barnard family in Holland can be traced back to circa 1751 (Izaak Barnard) of Scheveningen, however, the countries from which they entered Holland prior to that date are uncertain[2]. The Jewish branch of the Barnard family in England, is thought to have arrived in England after the time of the readmission of Jews by Oliver Cromwell (1656); some of whom can be traced back to Rabbi Daniel Barnard of Canterbury, with notable descendants around London [3] [4] [5],Chatham, Dartford [6] and in Australia [7].
Surname
The name is a held by Hebrew scholars to be a symbolic representation (or Kinnui[8]) for the Israelite tribe, Issachar. One of the sons of Jacob, Issachar, was compared to a donkey[9], so one would expect to find the donkey as a Kinnui[10]of Issachar. However, the donkey, not being very auspicious, was replaced by a bear; Dov in Hebrew, Bär or Baer in German. The corresponding family names are BAER, BER, BERR, BEHR, BERNHARDT, BERNARD (in France)[11], Anglicised and also found in Holland as BARNARD[12].
