The surname Welby has a rich history, particularly among individuals of Irish descent. The origins of the name can be traced back to the Gaelic word "Ua Baoighill," which means "descendant of Baoigheall." The name Baoigheall itself is derived from the elements "baogh" meaning "proud" and "geall" meaning "pledge."
The Welby family has deep roots in County Galway in Ireland. They were part of the powerful O'Kelly clan, who held considerable influence and land in the region. Over time, the name Welby became anglicized from its original Gaelic form.
During the 19th century, many individuals with the surname Welby emigrated from Ireland to various parts of the world, including the United States, Canada, and Australia. They sought better opportunities and a new beginning in these distant lands.
Today, individuals with the surname Welby can be found in various countries, but particularly in Ireland and its diaspora.
