The surname Cowley has a rich history of Irish descent. It is derived from the Gaelic name MacAmhalghaidh, which means "son of Amhalghaidh." The MacAmhalghaidh clan was originally located in County Offaly, Ireland.
The name Cowley is believed to have come into existence during the 12th century when the Norman invasion of Ireland occurred. It was common for Norman settlers to adopt Gaelic surnames, resulting in the transformation of MacAmhalghaidh to Cowley.
Over time, the Cowley family spread throughout Ireland, with branches establishing themselves in various counties such as Mayo, Sligo, and Roscommon. They became prominent in local communities and contributed to the social, political, and economic development of their respective regions.
During the 18th and 19th centuries, many Cowleys emigrated from Ireland due to economic hardship and the Great Famine. They sought better opportunities in countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia. As a result, the Cowley surname can be found in these countries today, with many descendants proudly tracing their Irish roots.
In summary, the history of the Cowley surname of Irish descent dates back to the MacAmhalghaidh clan in County Offaly. It evolved from the Gaelic name MacAmhalghaidh during the Norman invasion of Ireland, and the family spread throughout the country, making significant contributions to local communities. Emigration during the 18th and 19th centuries led to the establishment of Cowley families in countries around the world, who continue to cherish their Irish heritage.
