The surname McPierce or Pierce has a rich history of Irish descent. It is an anglicized version of the Gaelic name Mac Piarais, which means "son of Piaras." Piaras is the Irish version of the name Peter.
The name has ancient roots in Ireland, dating back to the 12th century. The Mac Piarais clan was originally from County Wexford and later spread to other parts of Ireland, including County Cork and County Kerry. They were known to be a prominent and influential family in these regions.
During the time of English rule in Ireland, the Mac Piarais clan faced persecution and their lands were confiscated. Many members of the clan were forced to anglicize their names, resulting in variations like McPierce or Pierce.
In the 19th century, a significant number of Irish immigrants with the surname McPierce or Pierce arrived in the United States, particularly during the Great Famine. They settled in various parts of the country and contributed to the growth and development of their new communities. Today, descendants of these immigrants can be found across the United States, often with variations in the spelling of their surname.
The surname McPierce or Pierce serves as a reminder of the Irish heritage and the resilience of the Mac Piarais clan in the face of adversity.
