Ouseley Coat of Arms

The surname Ouseley has its roots in Irish descent. It is believed to have originated from the Gaelic name Ó hAodha, which means "descendant of Aodh." Aodh was a common personal name in Ireland, derived from the word Aedh, meaning "fire." The name Ó hAodha was anglicized to Ouseley during the era of English colonization and the Anglicization of Irish names. The Ouseley family can trace its lineage back to County Limerick in Ireland. They were a prominent family in the region and held significant land and estates. Over time, members of the Ouseley family migrated to different parts of Ireland and even to other countries, spreading their surname and lineage. During the Great Famine in the mid-19th century, many Irish families, including those with the surname Ouseley, emigrated to escape the devastating effects of the famine. As a result, Ouseley families can now be found in various parts of the world, particularly in countries with large Irish immigrant populations, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Today, the Ouseley surname continues to be passed down through generations, serving as a link to the rich history of Irish descent.
