The surname Litton has its origins in Ireland. It is derived from the Gaelic name "Mac Giolla Fhionntáin," which means "son of the servant of St. Fintan." St. Fintan was a prominent Irish saint who lived in the 6th century. The surname Litton is therefore an anglicized version of this Gaelic name.
The Litton family is believed to have originated in County Galway in western Ireland. They were part of the larger Clan Fintan, which was spread throughout the region. The Litton clan was known for their involvement in religious activities and often held positions as servants or devotees of St. Fintan.
During the 17th century, Ireland experienced significant political and social upheaval, particularly with the colonization efforts of England. Many Irish families, including the Littons, faced discrimination and persecution during this time. As a result, some members of the Litton family emigrated to other countries, including the United States and Canada, in search of better opportunities and a more tolerant society.
Today, descendants of the Litton family can be found around the world, with a significant concentration in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and North America. The surname Litton continues to be a proud symbol of Irish heritage and a reminder of the family's connection to St. Fintan.
