Bayler Coat of Arms

The surname Bayler or Baylor has a fascinating history, particularly of Irish descent.

The origins of this surname can be traced back to the Gaelic name "Ó Báille" which means "descendant of Báille." The name Báille itself comes from the word "báille" which means "bailiff" or "administrator."

Originally, the Baylers or Baylors were likely to be found in County Cork and County Kerry in Ireland. Over time, some members of the family migrated to other parts of Ireland, including County Limerick and County Waterford.

In the 17th century, many Irish families, including the Baylers, experienced significant emigration due to political and economic conditions. Some Baylers relocated to North America, particularly to the British colonies. One such prominent example is John Baylor, who arrived in Virginia in the late 17th century and went on to become an influential landowner and politician in colonial America.

Throughout the centuries, the Baylers or Baylors continued to spread throughout the United States, with many descendants achieving notable positions in various fields such as law, politics, and academia. Today, the surname is found not only in the United States but also in other parts of the world, reflecting the diverse and widespread nature of the Bayler or Baylor family.
