The surname Poyntz, of Irish descent, has a rich and fascinating history that can be traced back many centuries. The name is believed to have originated from the Old French word "pointe," meaning "point" or "tip." It is thought to have been brought to Ireland by the Anglo-Normans who arrived in the 12th century.
The Poyntz family first settled in County Cork, where they became prominent landowners and established themselves as a powerful clan. They were known for their involvement in local politics and their strong ties to the English Crown. Over time, the family spread throughout Ireland, with branches in counties such as Limerick, Kerry, and Tipperary.
Throughout the centuries, the Poyntz surname underwent various changes in spelling and pronunciation. It was often written as "Poyntz" or "Pointz," but other variations, such as "Poyntz," "Poyntz," or "Poyntz," can also be found.
Today, individuals with the surname Poyntz can be found not only in Ireland but also in other parts of the world, particularly in countries with historical ties to Ireland, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Many descendants of the Poyntz family have carried on their ancestors' traditions and continue to honor their Irish heritage.
