In treating these names as anglicized forms of Ó Maolaoidh of Connacht I followed Woulfe. Further research shows that almost every record in which they appear relates to Leinster, for the most Co. Kilkenny or an adjacent area. Among these are Fiants of 1575, the “census” of 1659, Ossory and Prerogative wills of the eighteenth century and Griffith's Valuation of the nineteenth.

Millea Surname Meaning

From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

In treating these names as anglicized forms of Ó Maolaoidh of Connacht I followed Woulfe. Further research shows that almost every record in which they appear relates to Leinster, for the most Co. Kilkenny or an adjacent area. Among these are Fiants of 1575, the “census” of 1659, Ossory and Prerogative wills of the eighteenth century and Griffith's Valuation of the nineteenth. It would seem unlikely therefore that the Irish form of these is Ó Maolaoidh; but I am unable as yet to suggest the correct alternative.
