A versão mais aceita sobre a origem do sobrenome CHAVES e a cidade de CHAVE em Portugal, tendo começado a usar como sobrenome por volta do ano de 1160. No Brasil, no século XVIII os Chaves já estavam presente pelo menos nos estados de Pernambuco, Minas Gerais e Ceará. Meu 6o avô faleceu em 1774 em Aracati, Ceará, Brasil.
