The surname Geraghty or McGarrity has its origins in Ireland, and is derived from the Gaelic name Mag Oireachtaigh, which translates to son of Oireachtach. The Oireachtach were an ancient Irish tribe that was situated in the present-day County Mayo.
The name first appeared in historical records in the 13th century, and the descendants of the Oireachtach tribe were known for their fierce loyalty to their clan and their resistance to English rule. The surname later spread to other parts of Ireland, particularly in the northern counties of Tyrone and Fermanagh.
During the 17th and 18th centuries, the Geraghty and McGarrity families were heavily involved in the conflicts and upheavals that plagued Ireland, particularly during the Cromwellian and Williamite wars. Many members of the family were known for their involvement in the Irish rebellion against English rule.
As a result of the Irish diaspora, many Geraghty and McGarrity families emigrated to other countries, particularly the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Today, the surname is still prevalent in these countries, and many individuals with the name proudly trace their ancestry back to the ancient Oireachtach tribe of Ireland.
