The surname Musgrave has its origins in England, with the earliest recorded instance dating back to the 11th century. The name is believed to derive from the Old French word mousche meaning fly, and the Old English word graf meaning grove, suggesting a connection to a wooded area where flies were abundant.
Although the name Musgrave is predominantly associated with England, there is also a significant presence of individuals with this surname in Ireland. It is thought that the Musgrave family first arrived in Ireland during the 16th century as part of the Anglo-Norman invasion. Over the centuries, the Musgrave name has become established in various regions of Ireland, particularly in the northern counties of Donegal and Monaghan.
Today, the Musgrave surname is still found in Ireland, often with descendants tracing their ancestry back to English settlers who made their home in the country. The name has evolved and adapted over time, but its English origins continue to be a significant aspect of its history in Ireland.
