’I‘he form Higginson would appear to be English, but there are many cases on record where it is simply an Anglicized version.of the Irish family name. In Ireland this family name is most common in Westmeath and Gal- ment, however, 105es sight of the fact that both of these forms are but Eug- lish corruptio-ns of the Irish surnames, which are traceable definitely to dif- ferent sources both by means of spell- ing and the historical-genealogical re- cords in the Irish language. The Irish form of the surname is “O’h-Uigiu,” or “MacUigan,” the "11" being a necessary insertion after “0” to make it proncuuceuble. The family or clan name comes from the given name of “Uigin,” which means “know-J ledge." The mistake is often made of com,f fusing this name with the name of! Keegan, that is, in assuming that itl ccnies frame. the same given namej Eoghnn, through the use of the prefix! “mac.” The argument being that there is little real difference between Mac- Kegan and MacHiggin. This argu-; “Bic-con,” old English nicknames_for Richard; it. is safe to say that in the nmjorfty of cases if] this country such names are Celtic. /So far as O’Higgin and MacHiggin or McHiggin are con- cerned there is no x‘eascnable doubt that they are Irish. The Irish Higgins, like the English, comes from a given name, but not the same one. HIGGINS Variationsâ€"O’H}'ggin. MacHiggin, Hig- ginson, Huggins, McHiggan, Mc- Guigan. Rahal Originâ€"Irish.

Beck was simply a'very'old English ,Iword for bro-0k. It has become a : family name in the same manner that e Brooks has. It probably made its first v appearance in some such form as - “Thomas Ate Beck," or “Thomas at {the Beck.” It is easy to see how such ' descriptive phrases early became fifmily names, for they were as natural- ly applicable to father, son and grand- 1 son, through succeeding generations while the family continued to live in the same place.
