The surname Fitz-Awry is of Irish origin and is derived from the Gaelic name Mac an tSaoir, which means son of the carpenter. The prefix Fitz is of Norman origin and means son of, indicating that the original bearer of the surname was the son of a carpenter.
The Fitz-Awry surname can be traced back to the medieval period in Ireland when Norman influence was prevalent. The Normans invaded Ireland in the 12th century and established themselves as a ruling class. They brought with them their language, customs, and naming practices, including the use of the prefix Fitz to denote paternity.
The Fitz-Awry surname was likely given to individuals whose father was a carpenter or who worked in a related trade. Over time, the surname became hereditary, passing from father to son, and eventually became a fixed family name.
The history of the Fitz-Awry surname is intertwined with the history of Ireland, reflecting the influence of both the Norman invaders and the native Gaelic population. Today, individuals with the surname Fitz-Awry can trace their ancestry back to the medieval period in Ireland and carry on the legacy of their Norman and Gaelic forebears.
