Gilmartin, or Kilmartin, is a surname of Irish origin. The name is derived from the Gaelic Mac Giolla Mhartain, meaning son of the follower of (St.) Martin. The name is believed to have originated from County Roscommon in the province of Connacht in Ireland.
The Kilmartin family history dates back to ancient times, with the surname being among the first names recorded in Irish history. The Kilmartin clan is said to have originated in the 9th century as part of the Ui Briuin, a tribe that was once the ruling family of Connacht. The Kilmartins were known for their fierce loyalty and were often employed as soldiers and bodyguards for the powerful rulers of Ireland.
The Kilmartin name has spread throughout Ireland and the world as a result of the Irish diaspora. Many Kilmartins emigrated to other countries, particularly the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom, in search of better opportunities. As a result, the name has become more widely recognized and is now found in many different countries.
Today, the Kilmartin name is still prominent in Ireland and has spread to various parts of the world, with many individuals proud of their Irish heritage and the history of their surname.
