The surname Quill has its origins in Ireland and is derived from the Gaelic name "Mac Coill," which means "son of the woods." The earliest records of this surname date back to the 12th century in County Kerry, Munster, Ireland. The Quills were part of the ancient Gaelic tribe known as the Eóganachta, who were rulers of the kingdom of Munster.
The Quill family played an important role in the history of Ireland. They were known for their involvement in politics, as well as their contributions to art and literature. One of the most notable figures with the surname Quill was Daniel Quill, a member of the Irish Volunteers who fought for Irish independence during the Easter Rising of 1916.
During the years of English colonization and the Great Famine in Ireland, many Quills emigrated to other countries, including the United States, Canada, and Australia. As a result, the surname Quill can be found in various parts of the world today, with a significant concentration in these countries.
The Quill name continues to be celebrated and passed down through generations, keeping alive the rich heritage and history of the Irish people.
