The surname Creed, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that dates back centuries. The name is derived from the Gaelic word "Craobh" meaning "tree" or "branch". The original Gaelic form of the surname was "MacCraobhtha", which translates to "son of the branch". Over time, this name evolved and eventually became anglicized as Creed.
The Creed family can be traced back to County Donegal in Ireland, where they were known as a sept of the powerful O'Donnell clan. The O'Donnells were one of the most prominent Gaelic families in Ireland, with a long and rich history. The Creed sept was considered a branch of the O'Donnell clan, hence the surname Creed.
During the centuries, the Creed family spread throughout Ireland and can be found in various counties, including Cork, Kerry, and Limerick. They were typically associated with agricultural and landowning activities, as well as other professions such as merchants and tradesmen.
In more recent times, many members of the Creed family emigrated from Ireland and settled in other parts of the world, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. Today, descendants of the Creed family can be found in these countries, as well as in Ireland, where the name still holds strong ties to its Gaelic origins.
