The surname Peck, of Irish descent, has an interesting historical background.
The name is derived from the Gaelic name "Mac Pheadair," which translates to "son of Peter." In Ireland, the surname was anglicized to Peck during the period of English colonization.
During the 16th and 17th centuries, Ireland experienced significant political and social upheaval. The English Plantation of Ireland led to the displacement of many Irish families, including those with the surname Peck.
As a result, some Peck families migrated to other parts of the world, particularly to North America. The Great Famine of the mid-19th century also prompted Irish emigration, leading to the spread of the Peck surname to countries like the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
Over time, the Peck surname has become established in these various regions, with individuals of Irish descent carrying on the family name. Today, the surname Peck can be found among people of Irish heritage around the world.
The Peck family history is a testament to the resilience of the Irish people and their ability to adapt to challenging circumstances and build new lives in different parts of the world.
