The surname Ellmer is of Irish origin and is derived from the Gaelic name Mac Giolla Mhir, which means son of the servant of Mary. The name originated in County Tyrone, which is located in Northern Ireland.
The Mac Giolla Mhir family was a prominent clan in the region and played a significant role in the area's history. They were known for their loyalty to the Irish kings and were involved in various clan feuds and battles.
During the 17th century, many Irish families, including the Mac Giolla Mhir clan, faced persecution and displacement as a result of English colonization. This led to the scattering of the family and the migration of some members to other parts of Ireland and to other countries, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia.
Over time, the name Mac Giolla Mhir evolved into different variations, including Ellmer. Today, the surname Ellmer is relatively rare but can still be found in Ireland and among the Irish diaspora around the world.
The history of the Ellmer surname is a testament to the rich and complex history of Ireland and the resilience of its people in the face of adversity and displacement.
