Dockery Family History
Dockery Name Meaning
English: habitational name from any of several places called
Dockray, of which there are four examples in Cumbria. A possible
origin of the place name is Old Norse d{o,}kk ‘hollow’,
‘valley’ + vrá ‘isolated place’; the first element is,
however, more likely to be Old English docce ‘dock’ (the
plant).Irish: reduced Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó
Dochraidh ‘descendant of Dochradh’, a personal name that is
a variant of Dochartach (see Doherty).
