The surname Ashfield has an interesting history, especially for those of Irish descent. The name is derived from the Old English words "ęsc" meaning "ash tree" and "feld" meaning "open land." It is believed to have originated as a locational surname, given to individuals who lived near or in an area with ash trees.
During the medieval period, the Ashfield surname started to become more prominent in Ireland. Many English settlers arrived in Ireland during this time and brought their surnames with them. The Ashfield name was likely introduced to Ireland through these settlers.
