The surname Longfield has Irish origins and is derived from the Gaelic name "O'Longbhalaigh" or "O'Longphuirt", meaning "descendant of Longphort". The name Longphort refers to an ancient Irish fort or stronghold.
It is believed that the Longfield family originally resided in County Cork, in the province of Munster, Ireland. The surname was first recorded in the 17th century, during the time of the Gaelic revival in Ireland.
During this period, many Irish families began to anglicize their surnames in order to fit in with the English-speaking population. As a result, the surname O'Longbhalaigh gradually transformed into Longfield.
The Longfield family played a prominent role in Irish history, particularly in the field of law and politics. Notably, Edward Longfield, who was born in the early 18th century, became a renowned lawyer and judge in Ireland. He is best known for his work on legal reforms and his involvement in the Irish Parliament.
Today, descendants of the Longfield family can be found both in Ireland and abroad. The surname has spread to various parts of the world through migration and emigration.
