During the 19th and 20th centuries, many Irish people with the surname Taylor emigrated to other parts of the world, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and England. This mass migration was a result of the Great Famine in Ireland, as well as economic opportunities in other countries.
Today, the Taylor surname is relatively common in Ireland, often found in counties like Antrim, Down, and Armagh. Many individuals with the surname Taylor have taken part in preserving Irish culture and heritage, contributing to various fields like literature, music, and sports.
