The surname Millerd has its roots in Irish history. It is derived from the Gaelic name "Ó Máille," which means "descendant of a devotee of St. Malachy." The name originated in County Mayo, located on the western coast of Ireland.
The Millerd family can trace their lineage back to the ancient kings of Connacht, a province in western Ireland. The O'Malley clan, from which the name derives, was historically prominent in this region. They were known for their seafaring prowess, having a strong connection to the sea and coastal areas.
During the medieval period, the O'Malleys were respected as maritime leaders, engaging in trade, fishing, and piracy along the western coast of Ireland. Grace O'Malley, also known as Granuaile, was one of the most famous members of the clan. She was a powerful chieftain and pirate queen who commanded her own fleet of ships.
Over time, the surname evolved from O'Malley to variations like Millerd, Miller, and Malarkey, as families migrated and adapted to different regions and dialects. Today, descendants of the Millerd surname can be found not only in Ireland but also in other parts of the world, particularly in countries with a significant Irish diaspora.
