The history of the surname Wolverston, specifically of Irish descent, is quite fascinating.
The name Wolverston is derived from the Old English words "wulf" and "tun," which mean "wolf" and "enclosure" or "settlement" respectively. It is believed that the Wolverston surname originated in England, and later migrated to Ireland during the Norman invasion.
The first recorded instance of the surname in Ireland dates back to the 13th century. The Wolverstons were an Anglo-Norman family who settled in County Waterford and County Wexford. They became prominent landowners and held positions of influence within the local communities.
Over the centuries, the Wolverston name spread throughout Ireland, with various branches of the family establishing themselves in different regions. Many Wolverstons became involved in the military, politics, and various professions.
In modern times, the Wolverston surname can still be found in Ireland, although it has become relatively uncommon. The history and heritage of the Wolverston family serve as a testament to the rich tapestry of Irish history and the influence of Norman settlers on the island.
