The surname Lynot originated from a powerful family belonging to the Cambro-Normans, who settled in Ireland in the 13th century.
The surname Lynot was first found in Connacht (Irish: Connachta, (land of the) descendants of Conn). The Lynots were a powerful Cambro-Norman family who settled in Connacht in the 13th century, and held vast lands. In 1585, their lands were significant enough to be recorded in the Composition Book of Connacht.
