The surname Bendall has its origins in Ireland and is of Anglo-Norman descent. The name is believed to have been derived from the Old English personal name "Bendel," which means "brave or strong." It is also possible that the surname Bendall is a variant of the name Bendle, which is derived from the Old English word "bendel," meaning "a torch or flaming brand."
The Bendall family is believed to have arrived in Ireland during the Norman invasion in the 12th century. They settled primarily in the eastern part of the country, including counties such as Dublin, Kildare, and Meath. Over time, the Bendall surname became anglicized, as many Gaelic Irish families adopted English surnames to assimilate into English-dominated society.
The Bendall family in Ireland played various roles within society. Some were landowners, while others were merchants or professionals. They were known for their resilience and adaptability, thriving despite the challenges and tumultuous history of Ireland.
Today, the surname Bendall can still be found in Ireland, although it is not as common as some other Irish surnames. Descendants of the Bendall family can be found both in Ireland and across the world, as many have emigrated over the centuries.
