Al-Kandari

The Al Kandari is a large clan in Kuwait, while not the same as more coherent clans or families in the region who come from a single main branch, they are made up of loosely connected families; as each Kandari family may have different grandfathers, but as all have to come to Kuwait at similar times, the clan took the name after some of the first members who came to Kuwait who were working as "Kanadra" or water carriers in Kuwait. Therefore, the Al Kandari are simply a sizable Kuwaiti clan with various sub-families; closely related to each other. They are mainly composed of Sunni Muslim Larestani ancestry.[1][2]
