The surname Brereton is of English origin and has a long history that can be traced back to the Domesday Book of 1086, where it appears as "Breretune." The name is derived from the Old English words "brer" meaning "briar" or "broom," and "tun" meaning "enclosure" or "settlement."

In Ireland, the Brereton surname was introduced during the Norman invasion in the 12th century. The first Breretons to settle in Ireland were Anglo-Norman knights who were granted lands in County Galway and County Tipperary by King John of England. They became prominent landowners and played significant roles in Irish history.

Over the centuries, the Brereton family established strong connections in Ireland, intermarrying with other prominent Irish families and becoming part of the Gaelic aristocracy. They held positions of power and influence, serving as sheriffs, justices, and members of parliament.

However, like many Anglo-Norman families, the Breretons gradually assimilated into Irish culture and adopted Gaelic customs and traditions. They became more integrated into the local communities and embraced their Irish heritage.

Today, the Brereton surname is still found in Ireland, particularly in County Galway, County Tipperary, and other areas where the family originally settled. Many individuals with the surname can trace their ancestry back to these Anglo-Norman knights who arrived in Ireland centuries ago.
