The surname Webb traces its origins back to Ireland, where it is believed to have derived from the Gaelic name "Mac an Bhreitheamhan," meaning "son of the judge." Over time, this Gaelic name evolved into various Anglicized forms, including MacWebb, MacWebbe, and MacWebbie.
The Webb surname was prominent in several regions of Ireland, including Munster, Connacht, and Ulster. In Munster, the Webb family was associated with County Cork, while in Connacht, they were primarily found in County Galway. In Ulster, the surname was most commonly found in County Antrim.
The Webb family played a significant role in Irish history, with notable individuals emerging from the clan. For instance, Benjamin Webb, born in County Antrim, became a renowned Irish artist in the late 18th century. Another prominent figure was Sir Thomas Webb, an Irish soldier who served as a general during the American Revolutionary War.
Over time, many individuals with the surname Webb migrated from Ireland to other parts of the world, including the United States, Canada, and Australia. As a result, the Webb surname can now be found in numerous countries, reflecting the Irish diaspora and the enduring legacy of the clan.
