History of the Connery Surname:
The name Connery was first found in western Ireland in the form of the name Ó Conaire meaning descendant of Conaire. It is possible that Conaire may not be a single person but that the name may just mean descendant of a king. The name would eventually evolve into Conroy in county Clare and county Galaway. Due to poor record-keeping and low literacy names would commonly be slightly changed at this time. Eventually many different variations of the name would be created, including Connery
