Roach / Family History
The names Roche and Roach in Ireland are of Norman origin being derived from the name de Roiste, taken from a French word meaning 'rock'. The name was originally prominent in County Wexford but is now quite widespread, demonstrated by the fact that there are sixteen placenames called Rochestown throughout Ireland.
A Sept or Clan is a collective term describing a group of persons whose immediate ancestors had a common surname and all inhabited the same lands.
