The surname Percy has a rich history, particularly in relation to its Irish descent. The name is derived from the Old French name "Percy," which is ultimately derived from the Latin name "Percius." The surname first emerged in Ireland during the 12th century, when the Anglo-Normans invaded the country.
The Percys were a powerful and influential family in England, and several members of this family settled in Ireland. They were granted large tracts of land and became prominent figures in Irish society. Over time, the surname Percy became established as an Irish surname, often associated with those of Anglo-Norman descent.
The Percy family played a significant role in Irish history, particularly during the Anglo-Norman period. They were involved in various military campaigns and held positions of power throughout the country. They were also known for their patronage of the arts and their support of religious institutions.
Today, the surname Percy is still found among Irish families, although it is not as common as some other surnames. The descendants of the Percys can be found in various parts of Ireland, with some still holding on to their ancestral lands. The name continues to be a reminder of the rich history and heritage of the Irish people.
