The surname Somerton has a rich history, particularly in its Irish descent. The name is believed to be of Anglo-Norman origin, deriving from the Old French word "Somertun," meaning "summer farmstead." It is thought that the Somerton family originated from a small village or farmstead with this name, likely located in England or France.

During the Norman Conquest of Ireland in the 12th century, many Anglo-Norman families, including the Somertons, migrated to Ireland. They settled in various parts of the country and established themselves as prominent landowners and aristocrats.

Over time, the surname Somerton became anglicized and adopted by native Irish families, particularly in the southern regions of Ireland. These families integrated into Irish society while retaining their Norman heritage and surname. The Somertons became part of the Gaelic nobility and were recognized for their contributions to local communities and the Irish culture.

It is worth noting that the spelling and pronunciation of the surname Somerton may have evolved over the years. Variations such as Sommerton or Summerton are not uncommon, but they all trace their roots back to the original Anglo-Norman name. Today, individuals with the surname Somerton can be found not only in Ireland but also in other parts of the world where Irish emigration has occurred.
