The surname Sargant or Seargent, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that can be traced back to the medieval times.
The name is believed to have originated from the Old French word "serjant," which means "servant" or "one who serves." In medieval times, the term "serjant" referred to someone who was in the service of a lord or a landowner. These individuals were responsible for various tasks, such as the maintenance of law and order, collecting taxes, and acting as messengers.
Over time, the surname evolved and was anglicized to Sargant or Seargent. As the Normans invaded Ireland in the 12th century, they brought with them their naming customs, including surnames. It is believed that individuals who held the position of serjant in Ireland adopted Sargant or Seargent as their surname.
