The surname Cornell has a rich history, particularly of Irish descent. The name is derived from the Gaelic word "corn" which means "horn." It is believed that the original bearers of this surname were horn-blowers or horn-players, indicating a possible musical connection in their ancestral roots.
The Cornell family has been traced back to County Cork in Ireland, where they were prominent landowners. They were known for their involvement in agriculture and their extensive estates. The family's influence and wealth allowed them to become respected members of the community.
During the period of Irish immigration to America in the 19th century, many Cornells made the journey across the Atlantic in search of new opportunities and a better life. They settled in various parts of the United States, particularly in New York, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts. The name Cornell became more common among Irish-Americans as these immigrants assimilated into American society.
Today, the surname Cornell is still found among Irish-Americans, as well as other individuals of different ethnic backgrounds. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of the Irish people.
