The surname Slattery or O'Slattery has its origins in Ireland and is derived from the Gaelic name "O'Slataraigh" or "O'Slathraigh". The prefix "O'" indicates "descendant of", while "Slataraigh" or "Slathraigh" is believed to mean "strong" or "mighty".
The Slatterys are considered to be an ancient Gaelic clan that originated in County Clare in the western part of Ireland. They were part of the Dál gCais tribal grouping, which held power in the region. The Dál gCais were known for their warrior traditions and their most famous member was Brian Boru, who became the High King of Ireland in the 11th century.
The Slattery clan played an active role in Irish history. They were involved in conflicts against the Vikings who invaded Ireland and were known for their fierce loyalty to their leaders. Over time, the surname Slattery spread to other parts of Ireland, particularly County Limerick.
During the period of English colonization in Ireland, many Irish families, including the Slatterys, faced persecution and displacement. Some Slattery families emigrated to other countries, such as the United States, Australia, and Canada, seeking better opportunities and to escape harsh conditions. Today, descendants of the Slattery clan can be found worldwide, proudly carrying on their Irish heritage.
