The Conrady family had long lived in Germany near the border with the Netherlands, as A.E. Conrady records in an autobiographical account, augmented and published by his daughter Hilda Conrady Kingslake.〔Conrady & Kingslake, p. 830; Kingslake & Kingslake, p. 176〕 His paternal male ancestors from at least the 17th century up to the time of his father had been headmasters in the school of the town of Uedem. His father after beginning in that profession, turned to private business and the establishment of factories in the textile trade.
The family name had originally employed the Germanic spelling of "Conradi." This was later altered—perhaps in the 18th century—to Conradij in comformance to Dutch spelling, and A.E. Conrady himself employed this form of the name until World War I.
Conrady knew less about his maternal ancestors, though he mentions that his maternal grandfather had been a distiller by the name of Scriverius, and that his mother (Mathilde) had been educated in his paternal grandfather's school, and then sent to a finishing school in the upper Rhine region for a year. His father acted as music teacher to his mother and they were later married in 1859, whereupon they settled in Burscheid, Germany, where his father had obtained the headmastership of a local school.〔
