The surname Drury or McDrury has Irish origins and is derived from the Gaelic name Ó Draoi, which means descendant of the druid. The druids were ancient Celtic priests and scholars, and the name likely indicates a family who held this position in ancient Ireland. The McDrury variant of the surname indicates a patronymic form, meaning son of the druid.
The Drury family is believed to have originated in County Meath, in the province of Leinster, Ireland. They were considered an influential and powerful family within the region, with their seat at the town of Moydrum. The Drury family was prominent in Irish history and were involved in various political and military activities throughout the centuries.
The surname Drury or McDrury has been well-documented in Irish history, with notable individuals such as Sir William Drury, an English soldier who was appointed Lord President of Munster in the late 16th century, and his son Sir Drue Drury, who was a member of the Irish Parliament.
Today, individuals with the surname Drury or McDrury can be found not only in Ireland, but also in the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, and Australia, among other countries, as a result of Irish migration throughout history.
