Nationality: "The family of Bodkin is found in Ireland descending from Maurice Fitzgerald, from whom also sprang the Earls of Desmond and Kildare. Thomas Fitzgerald, gr. grandson of Maurice, is accredited with the origination of the name of Bodkin here. It is said that his use of the spear or "baudekin" in battle led him to victory, and hence the name came into being. This seems most likely, however several other possibilities have been forwarded over time. "Some say the name arose from the type of garment he habitually wore, a costly material of silk and gold tissue, called "baudkin" much used at the end of the 13th century. "For others of the name its origin has been given to mean 'little baud,' a form of Baldwin said to mean 'bold friend.' "The family is given as prominent in the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries in the town of Galway and in the town of Athenry. Four of the name are found as Mayors of Galway from 1485 and 1653. "One of the renowned 14 tribes of Galway, they received large portions of land there in 1242. They are found prominent in the area, furnishing Bishops, army officers and doctors. "According to Keatings Irish Genealogies the name is given as among the principal English and Welsh families settling in the town of Galway and other parts of the country in the 12th and 13th centuries. They are given to descend from the above Fitz-Gerald. "There was a street in Galway named 'Baudekyn's Lane' and they held lands in and about the town of Galway, including those of Newcastle (near the river), Athenry, Toberskehine, Ballynameatagh, Kilmarnon and D___. The original families of the name around the 1820s resided in Annagh, Carrowbeg, Castletown, Kilcloony & Thomastown. "The Bodkins of Kilclooney are given in the book entitled 'Milltown Sketches' as descending from the line of Major Thomas Bodkin of Kilclooney. They are given with extensive holdings in the parish of Milltown. "The family motto remained the same as that of the Fitzgeralds according to Hardiman. Arms: Ermine, on a saltire, gules, a leopard's face, or. Crest: A leopard's face, or. Moto: Crom Aboo (Crom to Victory). "The above arms are those illustrated in the introduction. At the beginning of the 20th century the arms in use were: Argent, a saltire gules. Crest: A wild boar proper. Motto: Crom Aboo. "From the old seal of Christopher Bodkin found appended to a deed dated July 7, 1554 it would seem his arms were: 'ermine, a saltire, gules.' "In King James Irish Army List is given one Major John Bodkin along with a Mathew and Augustus Bodkin. Dominick Bodkin of Galway was one of the Confederate Catholics who assembled in Kilkenny in 1646. At the siege of Galway in 1652, some six Bodkins are found refusing to sign the articles of surrender, and another 12 of the name were absent in order to avoid doing so. "Several are found as Irish Catholic 'proprietors' in the town of Galway in 1640 who lost their lands by 1657. "One Christopher Bodkin (d. 1572) served as Archbishop of Tuam. "O'Hart gives Thomas Bodkin, M.D. of Tuam, Co. Galway." — Galway, Connacht, Ireland, United Kingdom
