The surname Hurry is of Irish descent and has an interesting history that dates back several centuries.
The origin of the name can be traced to the Gaelic word "O'hOireadhaigh," which means "descendant of O'hOireadhach." This Gaelic name is derived from the word "oireadhach," which means "wanderer" or "vagabond." It is believed that the original Hurry family were a nomadic group who moved from place to place.
Over time, the spelling of the surname evolved and variations such as Hoare, Hore, and Hooray emerged. The name eventually settled on the spelling "Hurry" in the 19th century.
The Hurry family can be found throughout Ireland, with concentrations in counties Mayo, Galway, and Roscommon. They were predominantly an agricultural family, working the land and raising livestock.
During the 19th century, many Irish families, including the Hurrys, faced economic hardships and emigrated to other countries in search of a better life. As a result, there are now Hurry descendants in countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia.
Today, the surname Hurry is relatively rare, but those who bear the name can take pride in their Irish heritage and the resilience of their ancestors.
