While my source (the House of Names website) indicates that the town of Dore in Herefordshire is the origin of the English surname Dore, it also indicates that it came to England in the wave of immigraton following the Norman Conquest of 1066 A.D. It further states that this surname can be found amid the medieval-era records of Brittany, where the Old French language word meaning "of gold" was used to describe persons with blond hair.
