The surname Ker, of Irish descent, has a rich and fascinating history. It is derived from the Gaelic word "cearr," which means "black" or "dark."
The Kers were originally a Scottish clan who settled in the northern counties of Ireland during the 17th century. They were known for their bravery and skill in battle, and their presence in Ireland can be traced back to the Ulster Plantation of the early 1600s.
The Kers played a significant role in the region, particularly in County Tyrone and County Donegal. They were renowned for their military prowess and leadership, and many Kers held prominent positions in the Irish army.
Over time, the surname Ker underwent various spelling changes, including Kerr, Carr, and Keir. This was a common occurrence during the anglicization of Irish surnames.
Today, individuals with the surname Ker can be found not only in Ireland but also in other parts of the world, including Scotland, England, and the United States. The name has maintained its historical significance and continues to be an important part of Irish heritage.
