The surname Westby has its origins in Ireland, where it is believed to have been derived from the Gaelic name "Mac an Iomaire," which translates to "son of the steward." It is believed that the Westby family originally settled in County Clare in western Ireland.
Over time, the name evolved and became anglicized to Westby. The Westby family played a significant role in Irish history, particularly during the medieval period. They were known for their involvement in local politics and held positions of influence and power within their communities.
During the 17th century, a significant number of Irish people, including those with the surname Westby, emigrated to England and other parts of the British Isles due to various reasons, including economic opportunities and political unrest. As a result, the Westby name spread beyond Ireland and became established in other regions.
Today, individuals with the surname Westby can be found not only in Ireland but also in countries such as the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, and Canada, where descendants of Irish immigrants have settled over the years.
The Westby surname continues to be a source of pride and identity for those of Irish descent, symbolizing a connection to their ancestral roots and a rich heritage.
