Prendergast (''alt'' Prendergrast or Pendergrast) ((アイルランド語:de Priondargást)) is a Hiberno-Norman name. It may have its origins in Berwickshire, in the hamlet now called Prenderguest〔(poms.ac.uk )〕 or in the hamlet of Prendergast (Haverfordwest)〔(visionofbritain.org.uk )〕 in Pembrokeshire. The Prendergast name in Ireland derives from the 12th century Norman Knight Maurice de Prendergast, who came to Ireland with Strongbow. His descendants were seated in Tipperary and in south Mayo, counties in which the name has always subsequently been most populous. Some families of Prendergast assumed the name Fitzmaurice at an early date. The Prendergasts who assumed the Fitzmaurice name were also called MacMorris.〔The Book of Irish Families, Great & Small By Michael C. O'Laughlin; (booksaliveo.8m.com )〕 Variant spellings of ''Prendergast'' include Pender, Pendergast, Pendergrass, Penders, Pendy, Pinder, Pinders, Pindy, Prender, Prendergest, Prindergast, Pendergist. ==People with the surname== *Maurice de Prendergast, (1169–1174), Norman knight, *Declan Prendergast (born 1981) Irish hurler *Edmond Francis Prendergast (1843–1918), Archbishop of Philadelphia *Frank Prendergast (1933-2015), Irish politician *George Prendergast (1854–1937), Australian politician *Harry Prendergast (1834–1913), British recipient of the Victoria Cross *Ian Prendergast (born 1980), Australian rules footballer *James Prendergast (judge) (1826–1921), New Zealand Chief Justice of New Zealand *John Prendergast (born 1964), American author and human rights activist *John Prendergast (born 1815), British born painter *John Barry Prendergast (born 1933) Composer of film soundtracks including the James Bond films *Kerry Prendergast (born 1953), New Zealand politician *Kieran Prendergast (born 1942), British diplomat and a former Under-Secretary-General for Political Affairs at the United Nations *Maurice Prendergast (1858–1924), U.S. painter *Mick Prendergast, English professional Association football 1969–1979 *Michael Prendergast, baseball player *Patrick Eugene Prendergast (1868–1894), U.S. assassin *Paudie Prendergast, Irish hurler *Peter Prendergast (artist), (1946-2007), Welsh artist *Peter Prendergast (referee), (born 1963) Jamaican referee *Robert Prendergast, British admiral (1864–1946) *Seamus Prendergast, (born 1980) Irish hurler *Segismundo Moret y Prendergast (1833-1913), Spanish politician, President of the Council of Ministers *Terrence Prendergast (born 1944), Archbishop of Ottawa *Thomas Prendergast, (1806-1886), Creator of "The Mastery of Languages" system *Thomas Francis Prendergast (1871–1913), American Medal of Honor recipient *Thomas F.
