The surname Miller has a rich history, especially among those of Irish descent. The name originated from the occupational surname category, which means it was given to individuals based on their profession. In this case, the surname Miller was given to those who worked in flour mills, grinding grain into flour.
The Miller surname has Irish roots, and it can be traced back to the early medieval period in Ireland. During this time, the surname was often anglicized from the Irish Gaelic name "Ó Muilleoir," meaning "descendant of the miller." The Miller family was known for their expertise in grinding grains and their importance in providing flour to the local communities.
Over time, the surname Miller spread across Ireland and became more common among families involved in the milling trade. Many Millers migrated to different parts of the world, including the United States, Canada, and Australia, during the 18th and 19th centuries, in search of better opportunities.
