The surname Pigott, of Irish descent, has a rich history that dates back centuries. The name is believed to originate from the Gaelic name "Mac an Bhigheadaigh," which translates to "son of the little head," possibly referring to a person of small stature or a leader in a particular area.
The Pigott family can trace its roots back to the 12th century, when they were prominent landowners in County Cork, Ireland. They were known for their involvement in local politics and served as influential figures in the region.
During the Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century, many families, including the Pigotts, were displaced from their lands. However, they managed to retain their prominence and adapted to the changing political landscape.
Over time, the Pigott surname spread beyond County Cork and became established in other parts of Ireland. Many Pigotts migrated to Dublin and other urban centers, where they found success in various professions and industries.
Today, the Pigott surname is still found predominantly in Ireland, although there are Pigott descendants scattered across the globe. The name has become a symbol of Irish heritage and resilience, representing a long and storied history that continues to be celebrated by many.
