The surname Bindon has its roots in Ireland, although its origins can be traced back to England. It is believed to be a locational surname, derived from the place name Bindon in Dorset, England. The name was likely brought to Ireland during the Norman invasion of the 12th century when many Norman settlers migrated to the country.
The first recorded instance of the surname in Ireland dates back to the 16th century when Sir John Bindon, an English soldier, was granted land in County Clare. His descendants settled in the area and became prominent members of the local community. Over time, the name became anglicized to Bindon, reflecting the influence of the English language.
The Bindon family played an important role in Irish history, particularly during the 16th and 17th centuries. They were involved in various political and military affairs, including the rebellion against English rule and the subsequent plantation of Ireland. The family held positions of power and land ownership, solidifying their status within Irish society.
Today, individuals with the surname Bindon of Irish descent can be found both in Ireland and around the world. Many have carried on the family name, contributing to various fields such as business, academia, and the arts. The surname Bindon serves as a reminder of the historical connections between England and Ireland, and the complex interplay of cultures throughout centuries of migration and settlement.
