The surname Noyes has its origins in Ireland. It is an anglicized version of the Gaelic surname Ó Niaasaigh, which means "descendant of Niaasaigh." The name Niaasaigh is derived from the Irish word "nias," meaning "champion" or "hero."
The Noyes family has a long and rich history in Ireland. They were originally a sept or clan that resided in County Cork and County Limerick. As part of the Gaelic nobility, they held significant land and played an influential role in local affairs.
During the 17th century, Ireland experienced significant political and social changes. The English Crown sought to assert control over the island, leading to conflicts and upheaval. This period, known as the Plantation of Ireland, resulted in many Irish families anglicizing their names to align with English customs and to avoid persecution.
As a result, the surname Ó Niaasaigh became Noyes. Many members of the Noyes family emigrated from Ireland to other parts of the world, including the United States, Canada, and Australia, during the 19th and 20th centuries. Today, descendants of the Noyes family can be found in various countries, continuing to carry on their Irish heritage.
