The surname Spence II has an interesting history, particularly for individuals of Irish descent. It is derived from the Gaelic name "O'Spainsigh," which means "descendant of Spainiard." This suggests that the original bearer of the surname had Spanish ancestry or connections. It is important to note that the surname does not necessarily indicate direct Spanish heritage, but rather signifies a historical relationship between the individual or their family and Spain or Spainiards.
The usage of the surname Spence II can be traced back to medieval Ireland, where Gaelic surnames were adopted during the process of anglicization. During this time, many Irish families adopted English surnames for various reasons, such as assimilation or to gain social and economic advantages.
It is likely that the adoption of the surname Spence II by Irish individuals occurred as a result of this anglicization process. Over time, the surname became more prevalent among certain Irish families, particularly in regions where English influence was stronger.
Today, the surname Spence II is still found among individuals of Irish descent. It serves as a link to the historical connections between Ireland and Spain, and represents the complex history of the Irish people.
