Hi I am Richard Castle I research surname and place name meanings. richard.castle @ gravestonephotos.com
I think your name is a corruption of Yardley. This a common name in the West Midlands Birmingham UK. There are also a lot of Yarndleys there too. When I say a lot a test search found 10 John Yarndsleys in Birmingham.
Also Yeardley though this name is usually said to come from a Somerset village.
Looking at the element Yarn There are other possible derivations. Yarn is means Iron so Iron Yard might be possible.
Also in Old English Yarn is for Eagle so Yarnley would be Eagle Field (earna-feld) also found in Somerset.
If your name has 3 elements YAR-ND LEY Yar is River Ley is Field or perhaps Meadow and ND is the mystery.
Start with www.familysearch.com/search which is free, just type the surname.
I hope this helps and good luck.
