Crowne Surname Meaning

From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

(Anglo-French-Latin) a sign-name [French couronne, a crown, wreath; Latin corona]

Surnames of the United Kingdom (1912) by Henry Harrison

Mac Conchruachain A Co. Roscommon name formerly anglicized MacCroghan. SIF 45

A Guide to Irish Names (1964) by Edward MacLysaght

The name Crowne, associated with Manorhamilton and adjacent areas, is a form of Croghan, a name chiefly found in Co. Roscommon, alias Croan. Croghan is listed in the “census” of 1659 as a principal Irish name in the barony of Ballintubber, Co. Roscommon. In the Fiants we find MacCrowane in Co. Roscommon; Brian Keogh macBrien MacCroughen occurs in a Fiant of 1591 with a number of O'Beirnes in Mayo, near Co. Roscommon; and again in 1601 there is Croghan “alias O'Beirne”, which, taken in conjunction with their location, suggests that the MacCroghans or Crownes were a branch of the O'Beirne sept. Woulfe gives MacConchruacháin as the Gaelic—Irish form which is corroborated by a Fiant entry of 1582 in which MacEncroghan appears as a C0. Roscommon name.
