Skerritt Family History
The names Skerritt and Skerrett in Ireland were originally rendered as Scared, which is an abbreviation of Huscared, meaning 'house care'. These were one of the original 'Tribes of Galway' and thus it is in County Galway and surrounding Counties that the majority of descendants can still today be found.
A Sept is an ancient Clan-like collective describing a group of persons whose immediate ancestors bore a common surname and inhabited the same territory.
