The history of the surname Tew of Irish descent is quite fascinating. The name Tew is derived from the Old Irish surname "Mac Taidhg," which means "son of Tadhg." Tadhg was a popular given name in Ireland, derived from the word "tad," meaning "poet" or "philosopher." The surname Tew was originally found in County Galway and later spread to other parts of Ireland.
The Tew family can trace their roots back to the ancient kingdom of Connacht in western Ireland. They were a prominent and influential clan, known for their involvement in the arts, particularly poetry and storytelling. The Tew family played a significant role in preserving and promoting Irish cultural heritage.
During the period of English colonization in Ireland, many Irish families, including the Tews, faced displacement and persecution. This led to the emigration of several Tew families to other countries, including the United States, Canada, and Australia. Today, descendants of the Tew family can be found across the globe.
The surname Tew has evolved over time, with various spelling variations such as Tewes, Tews, and MacTighe. Despite these changes, the name Tew remains a symbol of Irish heritage and cultural pride.
