The surname Norbury or Norbery has a rich history, particularly among those of Irish descent. The name is derived from the Old English words "norš" meaning "north" and "burh" or "burg" meaning "fortress" or "town." It is believed that the name originated as a locational surname, indicating that the bearer resided in or near a northern fortress or town.
The Norbury/Norbery family can trace their roots back to medieval times in Ireland. They were prominent landowners and held positions of influence in society. Over the centuries, the family expanded and established branches in various regions of Ireland, including County Kilkenny, County Wexford, and County Waterford.
During the Irish diaspora in the 18th and 19th centuries, many Norbury/Norbery families emigrated to other parts of the world, particularly the United States, Canada, and Australia, seeking better opportunities and a new life. This led to the dispersion of the surname and its presence in different countries.
Today, individuals with the surname Norbury or Norbery can be found in various countries, but they often hold onto their Irish heritage with pride. The name serves as a reminder of their ancestors' history and the resilience of their family lineage.
