The surname Kirby has its origins in Ireland and is derived from the Gaelic word "Mac Oireabhi," meaning "son of Oireabhi." The prefix "Mac" indicates "son of," while "Oireabhi" is a personal name of uncertain origin.

The Kirby surname was primarily found in County Limerick, in the southern province of Munster. The family held a prominent position in the local area and were known for their leadership and influence. They were considered part of the landed gentry and held significant land holdings.

During the 17th and 18th centuries, many Irish families, including the Kirbys, faced challenges due to the oppressive policies of the English, such as the Penal Laws. These laws aimed to restrict the rights and privileges of the Catholic population in Ireland.

As a result, many Irish families, including those with the surname Kirby, emigrated to other countries in search of better opportunities and religious freedom. Some Kirbys made their way to America, particularly to states such as Pennsylvania and New York, where they established new lives.

Today, the surname Kirby can be found in various parts of the world, with a significant concentration in Ireland, the United States, and the United Kingdom. The name has been passed down through generations, and many individuals with this surname continue to honor their Irish heritage and ancestral roots.
