Very interesting info!! Both my paternal grandmother maiden name Brown and her mother was a Murphy and my grandfather surname Townsend and mother's maiden name Marshall, as far as my father knew both sides of his family emigrated from the County Cork area of Ireland to the Eastern Shore of Maryland in the US before the Civil War in the US which was from 1861-65 as his Townsend grandfather was a veteran of that War. Having had my Ancestry DNA done 50% is Italian attributed to both my maternal grandparents were Italian immigrants, and paternal came back nearly equal in % of Irish, British Isles, followed by German. The German coming up was quite a surprise!! Possibly the only pure Irish I can claim is marrying a Dolan and taking on my now late husband's surname which both his parent's Irish lineage traces to the Irish emigration to Boston during the potato famine. Unlike my husband's family which were strict Catholics, my Irish family were Methodist Protestants which my father believed his family brought this religion with they emigrated and did not adopt it in the US.

If they were protestant then they weren't Irish in the strict ethnic sense. A common mistake many Americans make: claiming Irish ancestry when they were in fact Ulster-Scots protestants. That is, 'Planters' from Scotland and northern England who were 'settled' in northern Ireland. They didn't mix or mingle with the native Irish catholics and were in fact hostile and suspicious of each other (see the Troubles). They would not have considered themselves Irish.

Interesting video, thanks! It certainly does make untangling surname origin for anyone in Britain and Ireland potentially more difficult! I am English but my mother is of Irish ancestry with the name Gallagher. I don't know if that name had an older traditional Irish spelling? I guess it probably was Anglicised to a degree. So, anyone with, let's say, the surname Smith (a very common name from an English word of trade/profession) could be purely English, purely Scots, early Norman/English settlers in Ireland (the Pale), later English/Scots planters in Ulster, or native Irish who Anglicised their name...either by choice or by decree....!

Where did SHIELS come from ??

You'll find a lot more Irish surnames that originate from England than vice versa. The reason is very simple - surnames became the norm in England long before they were widely used in Ireland. If it's any compensation - most "English" surnames came from France.

I see that the Irish apparently adopted surnames before the English. The first officially recognized English surname was in 1267, exactly a century before the Statutes of Kilkenny first began to reorder and anglicize Irish naming practice. So it is possible many or most Englishmen had not yet adopted surnames when their government began to change Irish surnames!

What is the suffix -an? Cross-an Brenn-an etc

Many surnames started as first names and changed ober time . ie, Duncan - Duncan's son- Duncanson . Or son of Reilly of Reilly- O' Reilly . Or named after their village John of Buxton - John Buxton Or their trade , John the blacksmith - John Smith.

What about cullen?

It has to be remembered that the majority of Irish people carrying an English or Norman surname will actually be of native Irish stock. The Anglo-Norman takeover of Ireland mirrored that of the one in Scotland: Clan chiefs and their close followers were dispossed of their lands in favour of an Anglo-Norman or a Breton and either exiled, murdered or outlawed, and the rank and file clan members were reduced to vassal status to the new lord, subsequently adopting his surname. My own great, great grandmother on my Dad's side was a Power (from the Norman surname Pouer) from Cork, the descendent of the unfortunate souls from the O'Donovan clan that were left stranded when the area of land in which they lived was snatched.

Ireland is not part of the British Isles - This is an antiquated British colonial term and ceased to apply to Ireland once the Act of Union ended in 1922 with the then creation of the Irish Free State ( Republic of, in 1949) The term is not used at an official State level by either the Irish or UK governments or at E.U. level due to the offensive nature of the term for for Irish Citizens. As it implies that Ireland is British. Ireland was never British. The view is held that this term British Isles is controversial in Ireland, where there are objections to its usage due to the association of the word British with Ireland. The Government of Ireland does not recognize or use the term and its embassy in London discourages its use. As a result, Britain and Ireland is used as an alternative description, and Atlantic Archipelago has had limited use among academics. Also in use is the acronym IONA which stands for the Islands of the North Atlantic. The term Celtic Isles was also considered, however because England is not Celtic but rather, Saxon, this term has not been used. They are also sometimes referred to as these islands. Or The British Isles and Ireland. You will not here mention of the term in Irish schools during geography or history lessons. You will never here a person use the term, The term however, is used on the UK among a very post-colonial insensitive ignorant populace, whom don't even see Ireland as a foreign country. The truth being, Canada, New Zealand, Australia are more British than Ireland could ever be, seeing as they are all members of the British Commonwealth with a British Monarch as the Head of their States. The British need to realize that their Empire is long over. Unfortunately their colonialist language still exists. Ireland is not a part of the Isles (no matter what you British or Anglo Irish seem to think) Mumbai is the capital of India, not Bombay, Myanmar is the name of the country in Asia, Burma. When you are wrong, it doesn't matter how many times you say it or how strongly you believe it - Your still wrong, and if corrected, you still revert to your original understanding, well then this is pure ignorance and false belief. British Isles has no official status.

@@cathalodiubhain5739 The term British isles is far older than the British Empire in fact it goes way back to the 1st century Greek historian Diodorus Siculus and refers to the 6,000 islands that together are known as the British isles.The largest or greatest in size of these islands is therefore known as Great Britain, which again has nothing to do with Empire. When the Scottish King James became king of England as well he then began to style himself the King of Great Britain ie the King of the whole larger island. Later when the British formed a world Empire it was of course known as the British Empire. However, the British Empire hasn't existed for 100years so why you keep referring to a long dead Empire, god only knows. Do you you still refer to the Carthagiania, Roman or Spanish Empires with such malice ? Men invented names for everything, and they can also change them, but these Isles were British long before the Scots, English or Welsh or indeed the Irish, and I dare say most people with continue to call them by that ancient name. Also all the peoples of the British Isles have Celtic roots, including the English whose DNA is 90% Celtic across the whole country except in East Anglia where even there it is still 68% Celtic. The Southern Welsh and Southern Scottish as well as the Majority of the English have only 10% Anglosaxon DNA, so 90% celtic. Therefore, we are all one people across these islands whatever ignorant racist and bigotted nationalists like to claim, dna doesn't lie !

Two distinct surnames.

Well....My Grandmother's name on my father's side was Mary Gildr and yes that is the correct spelling, Apparently. Was born in Belfast northern Ireland. And that was her maiden name, before marriage. I am to believe that she and my Grandfather from around Dunbarton of Scotland had the Scottish name Lennox, As both my Father's parents were both of Anglo Scandinavian Ancestor's , As my Father's original Ancestral name was once "Fitzflaad dating back in history before arriving in Scotland from over the sea's....But before 1040 it was changed to Lennox, as it was known in the Royal Court's in the history of King Macbeth of Scotland. Then due to some rather bad behaviour, it was changed for the Third Time.. tracing the name that my Grandfather was also of Anglo Scandinavian Ancestor's.

Mostly Scottish if your ancestors came from the occupied counties. It can also be a form of Irish Mac Pháidín/McFadden of Donegal. Ó Casáin of Clare and Galway has been Anglicised as (O)Cussane and Patterson. Mac Pheadruis (McFettridge) of east Ulster has also been changed to Patterson. In Dublin and Meath it is Norman, Gaelicised as Mac Páidín, a branch of the Barretts. You need a dna test!!!

I have Irish ancestry, & I am from Australia. My great grandfather was Irish, but I have discovered that his surname may be English. My great grandfather & grandmother's surname was Hardgrove. My great grandfather came from Kilkenny country. I think. Hardgrove is a name that comes from Hargreaves & other variations. I also learnt that the war cry is shared by other surnames that are similar also.

I’d say it is. What you think?

FitzGerald and all of the names commencing with "Fitz" are Norman names, not English. Those families were among the ones that a King of England described as being more Irish than the Irish.

My name is definitely Irish, O'Reilly , although it's spelt differently in Irish.

Hey, it's both an English and Scottish surname, DNA would probably answer which one descend from, we have lowland Scottish family often give the name "Clan" Straiton but translated more recently as Stratton who will have descendents arriving in the Plantations of Ulster but we also know the Strattons of England have been in Ireland since the 13th century with many unrelated branch's coming into Ireland right up until Cromwells invasion in the mid 17th century.

Looks like a contraction of a name that has been anglicised phonetically still at least your family kept as close to the original as they could some weren't so lucky, there are alot of Smiths and Browns out there who will only be able to rely on DNA to see which lines they orginally descend from.
