This interesting surname is an occupational name for a singer, chorister or precentor, deriving from the Middle English, Anglo-French "chantour", Old French "chantroir" meaning "enchanter or magician". The surname dates back to the early 13th Century, (see below). Further recordings include one Walter le Chauntur (1285) witness, "The Feet of Fines of Cambridgeshire".

Surnames became necessary when governments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.
