The surname Clary, or O'Clary, is of Irish origin and dates back to the ancient Gaelic clans. The name is derived from the Gaelic O'Cléirigh, meaning descendant of the clerk. A prominent family bearing this name is the Ó Cléirigh family, who were originally part of the Uí Fiachrach, an ancient Connacht dynasty.
The O'Clarys were important in the medieval period as they were notable recorders and scribes, involved in the documentation of Irish history and legends. The most famous member of this family was Mícheál Ó Cléirigh, who was the chief compiler of the Annals of the Four Masters, an important chronicle of Irish history.
With the English colonization of Ireland, the Gaelic tradition declined and the O'Clary family lost their influence. Like many Irish people during this period, some members of the family emigrated to America, probably during the Great Famine in the mid-19th century.
The name Clary has been modified in various forms over time due to anglicization and geographical dispersion, including variants like Clery, Cleary, and O'Clery. Despite this, the name continues to be popular, reflecting the enduring heritage and history of the O'Clary family.
