The surname Ingham has its origins in England, and its earliest records can be traced back to the county of Yorkshire. However, in the case of Irish descent, the history of the surname takes a different path. During the 17th and 18th centuries, many English settlers migrated to Ireland, bringing with them their surnames, including Ingham. It is believed that the Ingham surname was introduced to Ireland during this time, and it became established among the Irish population.
Ingham is an anglicized form of the Gaelic surname "Ó hEannaigh," which means "descendant of Eannaigh." The prefix "Ó" denotes "descendant of," while "Eannaigh" is a personal name of uncertain origins. Over time, the pronunciation and spelling of the surname may have evolved, resulting in the variation of Ingham.
The Ingham surname can be found in various parts of Ireland, with concentrations in counties like Cork, Kerry, and Limerick. Many individuals with the Ingham surname have Irish ancestry and identify as Irish. Their ancestors likely adopted the Ingham surname during the English settlement of Ireland and passed it down through subsequent generations.
Today, individuals with the surname Ingham, of Irish descent, can be found not only in Ireland but also in countries like the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom, as a result of emigration over the centuries. Despite its English origins, the Ingham surname has become woven into the fabric of Irish history and heritage.
