The surname Younge, of Irish descent, has a fascinating history that can be traced back several centuries. The name itself is derived from the Old English word "geong," meaning young or youthful.
The Younge surname is believed to have originated in Ireland during the Norman invasion in the 12th century. It is thought that a Norman family with the surname "Younge" immigrated to Ireland and settled in various parts of the country. Over time, the name became anglicized to "Younge" or "Young."
During the medieval period, the Younge family played a significant role in Irish society. They were known for their involvement in local governance and held positions of power and influence. They were often landowners and held estates throughout the country.
In addition to their social standing, the Younge surname also spread across Ireland as a result of marriages and alliances with other notable Irish families. This further solidified their presence in Irish society and contributed to the expansion of the surname.
Today, individuals with the surname Younge can still be found in Ireland and around the world. Many have maintained ties to their Irish heritage and continue to pass down the Younge name from generation to generation.
