The surname Pickworth has English origins, deriving from a combination of the Old English words "pic" and "weorth," which mean "pointed hill" or "place of the pike fish." It is believed to have originated as a locational surname, denoting someone who resided near a pointed hill or a place known for pike fishing.
Although the surname Pickworth is predominantly associated with English ancestry, it is not uncommon to find individuals of Irish descent bearing this name as well. The migration patterns and historical events in Ireland have led to the presence of various English surnames among the Irish population, including Pickworth.
During the 16th and 17th centuries, Ireland experienced significant English colonization and settlement. Many English families, including those with the surname Pickworth, migrated to Ireland during this period. Some were part of the English Protestant settlers who arrived in large numbers, particularly in the northern province of Ulster. Others may have been individuals seeking new opportunities or fleeing religious or political persecution in England.
Over time, those with the surname Pickworth and their descendants integrated into Irish society, adopting Irish customs and traditions while retaining their English surname. Today, individuals of Irish descent with the surname Pickworth can be found in various parts of Ireland and throughout the Irish diaspora in countries like the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom.
