I am English with no Irish connection and for some reason the algorithm decided l would like this and it is correct. Always interested to learn something about Ireland
JUST EXCELLENT. As a Malone in America, it is fascinating to learn my history. I have done some research as well as my son. Curiously when we did a DNA test e came out mostly English and Scottish, with some Irish. My son, who is a serious researcher, found out that while we have both Malone in Wexford and Gallowglass Campbell in Northern Ireland, the vast majority of out DNA came from a Welsh ancsetor (Ellis) who emigrated to Dublin Ireland in the 1700s. So we are pretty much mixed up, but mostly from the Island of Ireland who emigratede to the USA during the famine. Personally, I identify my self as American with primarily Irish heritage coming from the Island of Ireland. I am having mny son look into clans, as we may belong to the Malone and perhaps the Campbell clans. Thank you so much for this., I learned a great deal.
Haven't drank some cabbage water in a few year's,I live it with a pinch of pepper magic.Since my granny and mum passing no more cabbage water. Make my own one of these days ✌️☘️

my mothers people were from Lester, her last name was Lester also. apparently they were noted sheep breeders/farmers. the name wexford was also mentioned. she left ireland with her husband by the name of Pollock when she was young. they sailed to ontario, canada, and pioneered. they built their homestead farm. Charlotte R. Lester was my gr. gr. grandmother...from an upstanding background. ( i think she eloped !) it is so very interesting to know these things.
Thank you for this most interesting explanatory analysis re Ireland's Heritage! I know I'm in there somewhere? did some time in past read my family name which back in times & onwards had it's letters considerably changed to how it's spelled to day and elsewhere apart from 'Killkenny' all best!
I didn't know Clans of Ireland was still operating. Its a nice idea, and it would be quite nice for it to remain in place. Hopefully, they will continuing to receving goverment backing and move into DNA mapping which will help us understand our collective history and the ancient texts which proport to tell our story and may be verified throught research.
@@garyoconnordbaairrepair7775 whether your grandparents were driven out or just left due a sense of adventure, rest assured you have many relatives still in Co. Kerry. Although, they say about the O'Connors, they are known to this day for robbing banks to withdraw their own money just because they dont like filling out the forms.
How're ya man, Irishman here. When reading your comment I saw something funny which made me want to clarify something. It was the way you said contae ciarrai descent. We would just say ciarrai descent but I think and forgive me if I'm wrong here, you said it because you guys name the 'county' part of placenames? How are things doing over there at the moment? Did you ever come back and visit for a cup of tea?
Saint Bridget, daughter of Conchraidh mac Tal was reputed to have crossed paths with Saint Senan. If that statement holds any truth, someone went a long way back to find us a Surname. If anyone thinks that being thin on the ground means anything, my great grandfather left Ireland around 1850 - you should see how many Dal gCais now live in my part of the state of Victoria
My Irish ancestors emigrated in the late 1700s. Their surname was Ragan. They claimed to be of County Cork, although they sailed out of Shannon. The emigrant, Private John Ragan also served in the Continental Army.
A very impressive presentation about genealogy; my takeaway is that what's in a name isn't written in flesh & blood & that place & time may make a greater difference.
What's in flesh and blood is sound. The voice of a family always is passed on. Similar features to relations happen. The name is a record really. Isn't it
Our ancient ancestors all shared a profound understanding and held the science of Earth reverently.. The impression written history gives depicts a false narrative, our true history stolen.. There's a spirit of the Irish, perhaps this reflects ancient clann 🙏
My parents where both from Derry my dad was a catholic and my mum was a president. I have ancestors in Donegal and my great grandparents on my dads side was from Maghera and my mums I think Carrickfergus. Thank you for sharing this video
I assume my ancestors were from 5he english plantation period as the surnames seem english. They were from Co Fermanagh and Tyrone; Robinson, Keys, Johnston are the main lines. They came to USA in early 1830s.
There are a lot of Americans whose heritage is mostly English, Irish, and Scottish. My Scottish ancestors immigrated to Ireland and then to America. My English ancestors immigrated to Canada, and then my grandfather immigrated to America from Canada.
Not sure which clan I would belong to - don't know as much about my dad's side of the family - kerry/Limerick I believe. Not that sure of my moms side either.
Kilteasheen-22 (960-1300 A.D.) and I are “a rare and close” Big Y DNA match says FTDNA. My surname is PAYNE but I have used primary/secondary sources over many years and found my ancestors had come out of Ireland into East Anglia via Leicestershire where Nicholas Payn is found at North Kilworth by 1333 with a Ralph BOTILLER I believe was likely of the hereditary Chief Butler of Ireland family as Nicholas’ son, John, became Chief Butler of England in 1399 and the family had intermarried with the Boleyns in Norfolk attached to that Irish clan as well as with other families that had deep interests in Ireland. Blomefield’s Norfolk also held that we descend from an Adam Payn, of Ireland. Interestingly, our genealogical records solidly suggest that we originated in Jersey and, according to the family in Jersey (still there today) they were part of the Paynel’s from Normandy, leading us to think we’re Norman/French. However DNA says I am 95.5% CELTIC! R1b RM269 type. I could use some help to understand it all and attempt to find traces of my family in Ireland at this early time, likely in Roscommon. However, I have also found Payne’s elsewhere including 2 Payne Bishops - of Armagh and Cork- near this time too. If anyone can help Point me in the right direction I would be grateful as there is some very interesting history uncovered that needs to be told properly! Thank you for the consideration!

Clans were generally associated with a geographical area of Scotland. For example Clan Armstrong originated in the Borders , the MacGregors in Argyll & Clan Campbell across much of the Scottish Highlands.
My grandmother’s family were McNamaras from County Clare. I only know what my grandmother told me back in the 1970s. She said she had relatives in Clare and also in Mayo. They were poor, that I know, as most people in 19th Century western Ireland is. I would be unable to prove any of this, but I take my sainted grandmother’s word for it. I’ve been to Clare. I’ve been to our castle-Bunratty, which my brother and I reclaimed from the O’Briens during our visit to the throne room. On behalf of our particular McNamara diaspora to Northern New England, I’d like to say, we appreciate what the current owners have done with the place. As for who is related to whom, go back far enough, and everyone in the whole wide world is a cousin.
McNamaras from Achill Island, County Mayo. Our emigrant could not have been any taller than 4'10. But he got on that boat at age 15-yrs old and we are grateful. Enjoyed your post!
As an Aussie McNamara, I also enjoyed my visit to Bunratty. But according to a book I have "The Story of an Irish Sept - The Origin and History of the MacNamaras" first published in 1896, Bunratty is just one of more than 40 castles constructed by them as rulers of Clancullen in Clare from the 5th Century until their demise in the 15th Century. The book can be difficult to understand in parts but well worth a read if you have an interest.
@@2anthro thank you for saying this-Mom mentioned Mayo, but I didn’t have anything beyond that.Giving me the name of an island is a precious clue. I appreciate you! 💚
On my Maternal side, my Grandfather was a descendant from the O'Brien's and Curtin's. We never got far back enough to know if our O'Brien's were born directly from Brion Boru. Apparently, from what I learned there are O'Brien's in Ireland that didn't come directly from Brian Boru. It would be nice if we were directly from him.

My family name is anglicized from Ó MAOILCHIARÁIN, or “Servant of St. Ciarán” - but if surnames weren’t used until 1100, then history better suggests that the name comes from someone who worked/lived at Clonmacnoise at the birth of surnames - am I correct in that thinking?

I am fairly disappointed by this presentation - The Dal gCais Ydna group currently exceeds 1000 testers who have qualified for membership. I have been tracking our Crowes from Ceneuil Baoith whose last Chief from the Battle of Clontarf was Mael Meada The Mac Conchroes were described as warlike in the account of the Battle of Lough Raska - many Mac Enchroes served across hundreds of years but the Crowes are for the most part ignored by lazy academics who pick out their favourites for mention. The descendants of Aengus Cenn Nathrach are still on the surface of this planet and we have not forgotten our forebears .
Actually quite a bit is known about the Crowe, of Thomond at least. I am fairly sure that they are mentioned in the 14th century text, Cathréim Thoirdhealbhaigh, though it's evident that they were always a minor lineage whose hereditary estate appears to be near Slieve Callan, and is called Skeaghvicenroe. One branch became Protestant and were landlords in the 19th century-- that branch being the best known in Clare.
@@lukemcinerney7458 The warlike MacConchroes from Cenel Baoith were mentioned in the account of the battle of Lough Raska - Yourself I understand, uncovered various records from Inchiquin that mentioned various McEncroes. Dr Maire ni Mhaonaigh of Cambridge, has referred to Rawlinson 486 (a neglected account of the battle of Clontarf), where Mael Meada of Cenel Baoith was particularly singled out. His pedigree is shown in several manuscripts. My Ydna shows a direct link back to Cas. - In the book of the Brown Cow (Edinburgh), mention is made of Conchraidh mac Tal - Cas is also referred to as Cas mac Tal. I cannot progress any further at present. Since there is scant mention of Conchraidh and the selected surname for us was Mac Conchrada, I have presumed there is a close relationship to Cas
@@lukemcinerney7458 It is quite clear from my research that the tribal territory of Ceneul Baoith was the homeland of the Mac Conchroes, the MacEnchroes, the Chroes, the Crows, the Crowes the Croughs, the Crokes and last but certainly not least, Mael Meda who was present at the Battle of Clontarf. The latter is featured in a number of Genealogies showing his descent from Baoith, a son of Aoengus Cenn Nathrach and Cas mac Tal

Research on the Anglo-Irish suggests that as many as 40% were Irish families who converted, and I'm sure there was mixing between these indigenous families and the "settlers" or "colonists." There are also numerous examples of Anglo-Irish people adopting the general label "Irish" as a descriptor, and in the 18th Century something like a "cult of St. Patrick" emerged among Irish Anglicans.
In the end, I think we need to move away from these narrow and exclusive definitions of 'Irish' and accept that, like most countries, Ireland had different ethnic and social classes that engaged with Irishness in different ways, and sometimes not at all. I don't really find the narrow approach educational, nor is there much evidence that the Anglo-Irish were perceived as "English colonists" by their class peers in England. Both the Duke of Wellington and Edmund Burke were caricatured as "Irishmen" in the British press, for example, and both had a rather mixed genealogy, although certainly upper class (especially Wellington).
