The surname Carnes has its origins in Ireland and is believed to be of Gaelic origin. It is derived from the Gaelic word "cairn," which means a pile of stones or a memorial mound. The name may have originally been given to someone who lived near such a feature or who worked as a stonemason. The name likely originated in the western part of Ireland, where the Gaelic language was most prevalent.
The Carnes surname has a long history in Ireland and can be traced back many centuries. It is believed that the name was first recorded in County Donegal in the 16th century. Over time, the Carnes family spread to other parts of Ireland, including counties Galway, Mayo, and Sligo.
During the 19th century, many Irish people, including those with the surname Carnes, emigrated to other countries, particularly the United States. This was due to factors such as the Great Famine and economic hardships in Ireland.
