Wimberley Coat of Arms

The surname Wimberley, of Irish descent, has a rich history that dates back several centuries. It is believed to have originated from the Gaelic name "Ua Cinnsealach," which translates to "descendant of Cinnsealach," a personal name derived from "cinn," meaning "head" or "chief," and "sealbh," meaning "possessor" or "holder." The name likely referred to a person with leadership qualities or someone who held a high position within their community.

Over time, the spelling and pronunciation of the name evolved, and it eventually became Wimberley. The first recorded instance of this surname in Ireland was in the 17th century, where it appeared in various documents and registers. It is believed that the Wimberley family settled in County Cork, in the southern region of Ireland.

The Wimberley family, like many other Irish families, faced challenges and hardships throughout history. They endured political unrest, land disputes, and economic struggles, which often led to emigration. Many Wimberley individuals left Ireland and migrated to other parts of the world, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, in search of better opportunities.

Today, descendants of the Wimberley family can be found in various countries, with a significant presence in the United States. They carry on the legacy and traditions of their Irish ancestors, proudly bearing the surname Wimberley.
