The surname Parke, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that dates back to medieval times. It is derived from the Gaelic name "O'Parthaigh," which means "descendant of Parthach," a personal name meaning "war-like." The O'Parthaigh clan originated in the ancient territory of Breffny, which now lies on the border between County Cavan and County Leitrim in Ireland.

Over time, the O'Parthaigh clan became anglicized as Parke, with the prefix "O" often being dropped. The Parke family played a significant role in Irish history, with notable members serving as military leaders and landowners.

During the 17th century, Ireland underwent a period of political and social upheaval, known as the Plantation of Ireland. Many Irish families, including the Parkes, faced displacement and persecution. Some members of the Parke family emigrated to other countries, particularly to the United States and Canada, seeking better opportunities and escape from the turmoil.

Today, the surname Parke can be found around the world, carried by descendants of Irish immigrants. It serves as a reminder of the resilience and courage of the O'Parthaigh clan and their enduring legacy.
