    Cornwall surname

    Still continuing with clan associations with various surnames, another one of my ancestors was from Ireland, and had the surname "Cornwall". The obvious geographical association for the name would be Cornwall, but I don't have any definitive information on the origin of the name.

    However, she was born in County Cork, Ireland, and for several generations her ancestors were from County Cork and the nearby County Armagh. I assume this would likely make them Ulster Scots. Does anyone know if the surname "Cornwall" would be an Ulster Scots Surname, and in particular whether the "Cornwall" family had any association with a Scottish clan?
