The surname Geoghegan or O'Geoghegan is of ancient Irish origin and can be traced back to the Gaelic name Ó Géagáin, which means son of Géagán. The Geoghegan clan originates from County Westmeath and County Longford in the province of Leinster, Ireland. The name was first recorded in Ireland in the 10th century, and the Geoghegans were originally a powerful sept in the kingdom of Brawny.
The family played a significant role in Irish history, particularly during the medieval period. They were known for their support of the Gaelic chieftains and their resistance against English rule. The Geoghegan clan was involved in numerous conflicts and battles, and they were also known for their strong ties to the Catholic Church.
During the 17th century, the Geoghegan family suffered greatly as a result of the English conquest of Ireland. Many members of the clan were dispossessed of their lands and forced into exile. Despite this, the Geoghegan name has survived through the centuries, and many descendants of the clan still bear the surname today.
The name Geoghegan has also spread beyond Ireland, particularly to countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia, where descendants of the Geoghegan clan have settled over the years.
