The surname Houston has its roots in Ireland and can be traced back to the ancient Gaelic name "Mac Eocháin." This name originated from the personal name "Eochaidh," meaning "horseman" or "horse rider." The Mac Eocháin clan were a prominent sept of the O'Neill dynasty, one of the most powerful and influential Irish families during medieval times.

The Houstons of Ireland were primarily located in the province of Ulster, specifically in County Down. They were known for their association with the ruling O'Neill family and their involvement in political and military affairs.

During the 17th century, Ireland experienced significant political and social changes due to the English colonization efforts. Many Irish families, including the Houstons, were dispossessed of their lands and forced to relocate or flee to other countries, including Scotland and America.

In Scotland, the Houston surname underwent a slight alteration, becoming "Houstoun." Some members of the Houston clan in Scotland eventually migrated to America, particularly in the 18th century. Today, descendants of the Houstons of Irish and Scottish descent can be found across various parts of the United States, particularly in states like Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Texas.

The Houston surname carries a rich history of Irish descent, reflecting the migration and resilience of the Gaelic people throughout the centuries.
