The surname Bowyer has its origins in England, deriving from the occupational name for a maker of bows. It comes from the Old English word "bogere," which means "bow maker." Those who held this surname were skilled craftsmen who crafted bows for hunting or warfare. Over time, the surname Bowyer spread to various parts of the British Isles, including Ireland.
In Ireland, the Bowyer surname is believed to have been introduced during the English settlement of the country in the 16th and 17th centuries. Many English settlers arrived in Ireland during this period, bringing their surnames with them. The Bowyer name became established in various parts of Ireland, particularly in counties such as Cork, Dublin, and Kilkenny.
Throughout history, the Bowyer surname was likely to have undergone variations in spelling and pronunciation. This is common for surnames as they are passed down through generations. Different branches of the family may have adopted slightly different versions of the name, such as Boyer or Bowyar.
Today, individuals with the Bowyer surname can be found in Ireland and in other parts of the world where Irish emigrants settled. The name is a reminder of the ancestral occupation of bow making and serves as a link to the historical origins of the family.
