The Heron Clan

Clan History...

The surname Heron is of dual origin, both Irish and English. The Irish version of the name comes from the the Gaelic "O'hEachthighearna" "each" meaning "steed" and "tighearna" meaning "lord". The family held a seat as part of the Dalcassian sept in County Clare as far back as the year 1000. The name is often synonymous with the names Aherne and Heffron. The ancient Norman/English version of Heron usually means "one of long legs", and this is believed to be associated with Oriel (along the north east coast) and county Donegal. There are many variants of the name in Ireland and it is very difficult to discern the exact origin as there has invariably been some cross over between both the Irish and English versions.
