The surname McRery or McCrery is of Irish origin and is derived from the Gaelic name Mac Riabhaigh, which means "son of Riabhach." The prefix Mac indicates "son of," while Riabhach translates to "brindled" or "speckled." It was a descriptive name given to someone with a brindled or speckled appearance, possibly referring to hair color or complexion.
The name originated in County Donegal in the northern part of Ireland, where the MacRery/McCrery family was prominent. Over time, the family migrated to other counties such as Tyrone and Derry, as well as to other parts of Ireland and beyond.
During the 19th century, when many Irish families emigrated to other countries to escape poverty and seek better opportunities, numerous McRery/McCrery individuals settled in the United States, Canada, Australia, and other English-speaking nations. As a result, the surname became more widespread outside of Ireland.
Today, descendants of the McRery/McCrery family can be found in various parts of the world, particularly in areas with significant Irish communities. Many individuals with this surname take pride in their Irish heritage and may participate in cultural events and organizations to celebrate their roots.
