The surname Molton, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that dates back centuries.
The name Molton is derived from the Gaelic surname "O'Maoltuile," which means "descendant of Maoltuile." The Gaelic name Maoltuile itself is derived from the word "maol," which means "bald" or "tonsured," and the personal name Tuile, meaning "flood" or "deluge."
The Molton family originated in County Clare, located on the west coast of Ireland. They were part of the Dalcassian tribe, descendants of the ancient High Kings of Ireland.
The O'Maoltuile clan played a significant role in the history of Ireland, particularly in County Clare and the surrounding areas. They were known for their bravery in battle and their loyalty to the Irish cause.
Over time, the surname O'Maoltuile evolved and anglicized into various forms, including Molton. This anglicization was a common practice during the English colonization of Ireland, as the English rulers sought to exert control and influence over the native Irish population.
Today, the surname Molton can still be found among Irish descendants, both in Ireland and in other parts of the world where Irish immigrants settled. The name serves as a reminder of the rich history and heritage of the O'Maoltuile clan in Ireland.
