"Gallego. Procede del caballero Alvaro Mariño que en el año 830 se destacó en la toma de la villa de Moya (Cuenca) tomando este nombre"
(http://www.pergaminovirtual.com.ar/apellidos/moya.html)
From Galicia, Spain. the first known person with this surname is Alvaro Mariño, who, in the year 830, took over "La Villa de la Moya"(Cuenca) and adopted this name as his own.
This is practically the same info Ivayla is kindly providing to you on that website she posted.
Hope this helps,
