The surname Gilmour has its origins in Ireland, deriving from the Gaelic name Mac Giolla Mhuire, which means "son of the servant of the Virgin Mary." The name was commonly anglicized as Gilmore or Gilmour.
The Mac Giolla Mhuire clan originated in County Down, in Northern Ireland, and were descendants of an early Irish chieftain named Domhnall, who lived in the 12th century.
During the 17th century, many Irish families, including those with the surname Gilmour, faced significant upheaval due to English colonization and the subsequent land confiscations. This led to a large-scale migration of Irish people to other countries, including Scotland and America.
In Scotland, the surname Gilmour became particularly prominent. Sir John Gilmour, who was born in Scotland in 1826, played a significant role in the development of the British Empire, serving as Governor of Bombay, India. The Gilmours of Scotland have since become a notable family, with members holding various titles and positions.
Today, individuals with the surname Gilmour can be found around the world, with many still residing in Ireland, Scotland, and countries where Irish and Scottish immigrants settled, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia.
