The surname Malpas has an interesting history, particularly in relation to its Irish descent. It is derived from the Middle English phrase "mal pas," meaning "bad passage" or "difficult crossing." The name was originally associated with a place called Malpas in Cheshire, England, situated on the border with Wales. Malpas was known for its treacherous terrain, hence the name. Over time, individuals who hailed from this region began to adopt Malpas as their surname.
In terms of its Irish connection, it is believed that some individuals with the surname Malpas migrated from England to Ireland. This could have been due to various reasons such as economic opportunities or political unrest. As they settled in Ireland, these individuals brought their surname with them, establishing the Malpas name within the Irish community.
It is worth noting that surnames in Ireland have undergone significant changes throughout history. Anglicized versions of Irish names were often used, particularly during British rule. This could have contributed to the presence of the Malpas surname in Ireland.
Overall, while the origin of the Malpas surname can be traced back to a place in England, its presence in Ireland suggests migration and assimilation into the Irish community.
