The surname Harley, of Irish descent, has an intriguing history dating back centuries. It originates from the Gaelic name Ó hEarghaile, meaning descendant of Eaghal, a personal name believed to signify a valiant warrior. The Harleys were a prominent Irish clan, hailing from County Westmeath in the province of Leinster.

During the medieval period, Ireland was subject to English colonization attempts. As a result, many Irish families, including the Harleys, faced significant upheaval. The Anglo-Norman invasion of the 12th century led to the assimilation of Gaelic surnames into the English system. Consequently, the prefix Ó was often dropped, and h was added to surnames for easier pronunciation by English speakers. This change transformed Ó hEarghaile into Harley.

Over time, the Harleys spread across Ireland, with notable branches emerging in various regions such as County Meath and County Donegal. Like other Irish families, the Harleys endured centuries of political and social turbulence, including the religious conflicts that defined Ireland's history.

Today, members of the Harley family can be found not only in Ireland but also in other parts of the world, particularly the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, where many Irish immigrants settled. The name Harley serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy and resilience of the Irish people.
