The surname Boyland has its origins in Ireland. It is derived from the Gaelic name Ó Baoighill, which means "descendant of Baoigheall." The Gaelic name Baoigheall itself is believed to come from the Old Irish word "baigell," meaning "pledge" or "surety."
The Boyland family can be traced back to County Cork, in the province of Munster, where they were prominent landowners and held positions of influence. As with many Irish surnames, variations of the name emerged over time, including Boyle and O'Boyle.
During the turbulent times of British colonization and the Plantation of Ireland, many Irish families, including the Boylands, faced hardships and were dispossessed of their lands. Some chose to emigrate to other countries, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia, seeking better opportunities and a fresh start.
Today, the surname Boyland can still be found predominantly in Ireland, particularly in County Cork and other areas with strong Irish heritage. The name has also spread to other parts of the world through migration and diaspora. Many individuals with the surname Boyland continue to hold onto their Irish roots and take pride in their heritage.
