Libertarianism is explicitly based on the ideas of Manchester School Liberalism. The British Liberal Party of the 19th Century was all about free market ideology, in contrast to the (theoretically) more centrist modern party. In Victorian Britain, Liberal own you.

Broader socialism has its roots in the French revolution and liberalism too. But you don't see anyone making a case that Marxists are liberals due to their common ideological heritage. Because it's silly. It's almost like divergent ideologies have to originate from somewhere and within a particular historical context. It's unproductive and pointless to say "z came from y and y from x so z is the same as x"
