The surname Harman has an interesting history, particularly for those of Irish descent.
The name Harman is derived from the Old English word "heah" meaning high, and "mann" meaning man, denoting someone who was of high status or rank. The surname originated in England and was introduced to Ireland during the Norman invasion in the 12th century.
Over time, the Harman surname became anglicized in Ireland and was adopted by Gaelic Irish families. Many Harman families settled in various parts of Ireland, including County Galway, County Meath, and County Wexford.
During the 18th and 19th centuries, many Irish Harman families emigrated to countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia, seeking better opportunities and escaping the hardships of the Irish Famine. As a result, the Harman surname can now be found in various regions around the world, with a significant presence in Irish diaspora communities.
Today, individuals with the surname Harman can trace their ancestry back to Ireland and the Norman conquerors. The Harman surname represents a rich heritage and serves as a reminder of the resilience and adaptability of Irish families throughout history.
