You're a trip. How the f are you gonna claim my family as your ancestors? I find people like you cruel and mean. My family is black. You know the real Oniels we're forced out our country to give to white people. And you went along w it. Well I'm here to reclaim my family. Claim your own ancestors. But you don't have any.
Many of the O’Neills caused the problems for the Gaels (and old English who were now Gaels ) all over the country, sometimes actually fighting with the English against Gaels eg Cork .
I am the great great granddaughter of Con and Matthew s line directly. I live in NZ and am one of the Spanish Habsburg O'Neills .They thought my grandfather was dead after the earthquake in Lisbon but not so.They hid him and took him to Cork.His son came to NZ . I have found my Grandfathers story he told me when I was five to be true and am very proud to be an O'Neill.
The “genealogist” and “experts“ saw you coming . More money than sense . 🤦♀️😂🤣 God love the foreigners - ex pats . Believe any auld nonsense and will pay for it. Great great grand child .lol you are talking 1800s , not before 1601 . 🤦♀️😂 By 1601 many of them had married into the English big whigs Always find it funny with those who make grand claims about being from important families … do the “experts” ever just go , “sorry, your Sept (not you personally ) were quite ordinary, serfs to their over lord etc etc “ . Nope , they will tell ya who one is related to the actual big dogs , after passing them coin . 🤣
@@spike5336 Hi nice to meet you cousin. Are you on 23andme.com? If so please link up to me. I just got another update. It says, You are in the direct line of King Ulster, and from Cookstown. I had no idea you replied to me, sorry it took so long.

Clan O’Hagan, Lords of Tullaghoge, Chief Brehons, custodians of the Tullaghoge Fort, inaugurators of The O’Neill by hereditary right, inhabiting County Tir Eoghain in Tullaghoge near Cookstown for centuries, enters the chat to pay respects to his O’Neill brethren.
I always refer to it as Tulach Óg and it could mean the "Hill of Youth" or the "Hill of the Warrior". It was once the inauguration place of the UíTuirtre Chieftains the O'Flynn's and the Chieftains of the Federation of Oriel. When the UíTuirtre lost the territory to the ever expanding Hy Neill clans they took the original stones of the 'Wizards Chair' with them and reinstalled them at their new inauguration place on Dunmull Hill in Dál Riada (Antrim). The 'Wizards Chair' remained at Dunmull until the Anglo Normans arrived and relocated it.
@@katinss9983 I always tell people that they took it back to London and it got built into the throne room in one of their castles.

@@backbeatpat yes, I heard that the cap stone was taken from the hill of Tara and is placed beneath the coronation seat in Balmoral or wherever the brits have their ceremony. They their bed so much from Ireland, and used it for what they couldn't access through divination.
The O'neill's have been glorified in history. However, there has been plenty of historians who argued they heavily taxed their subjects to fund their lifestyle and endless battles with other families, ruled with an iron fist, and the plantations were in effect a liberalisation of Tyrone. Protestant undertakers were very willing to take on catholic tenants who paid rent rather than relentless taxes.
JS2000 they were no better than the politicians of today . It was all for themselves and when the shit hit the fan the sailed away and left the lower class to suffer the onslaught of the crown . The Gaelic system was its own worst enemy no unity they could be bought and sold for English gold and silver
@@finneire2081 Yes, its completely nonsense the idea that they were some glorious Irish family dynasty for a beautiful era that abruptly ended. They were arrogant and ruthless. On the plus side, their descendent Hugh Dubh O'neil handed Cromwell's army their biggest casualties and forced a retreat on Day 1 in Clonmel! Unfortunately for him, he was too low on ammunition for Day 2, so he slipped out the back!
JS2000 yes you are right For me I think the greatest victory of all was at Benburb under Owen roe. They should have turned south after that and invaded Dublin
Deaf O'Neills would like to watch this video, but cannot for the lack of coherent captions.

Eamonn O'Neill signing in from Texas(?), Can only trace my family to Charles O'Neill, b 1791 in Tyrone, my father Peter , also in Tyrone , Dirnan, Lissan Co Tyrone born 1913. I guess my family has been in Tyrone since Hugh O'Neill fled with the Earls. Is there anyone on this post a historian still active in O'Neill history in 2023 ?
mark vincent no over the spam of a few years gallowglass were originally norse Gael (not Pictish all of western Scotland was descending of Irish)but they quickly became Irish Irish joined there ranks and Norse gaels intermarried
Hugh O'Neill was a military genius. Nearly won independence. Respect.

O’Neill was originally an enforcer on behalf of the crown in ulster
@@vestty5802 yes but he was doing that to gain their trust and keep his planned rebellion a secret
McGuire's fought to the last O'Neill's turncoats

The last of the old Gaelic chieftains fighting for his country’s freedom, I’m northern Irish but full scale respect to this man and all of Ireland.
Even yet you can't throw a stone in Co Tyrone without hitting an O'Neil
I am adopted and took my DNA. I was happy to see I am from the Uí Néill dynasty. Thank you for the educational video.

Im an o'neill born and raised in ireland. My dad is from tyrone.
I got the history,,,
I’m related to the O’Neill Vikings, in fact I’m related to neil of the nine hostages
Don't forget the McLaughlins ruled Ulster as well, Its not all about the O'Neills.
so did the o donells, but it was the o neils that fought battles to safeguard everyone on the island and preserve the gaelic legacy.
Rm222 here!
Im from Belfast so I know I shoudnt say this but my fuck to I love the that county Tyrone abú
I only watched this because I am a O’Neill
I'm O'neill clan too
Hehe, O'Neil with one L, still the family comes from Tyrone.
Neil mc neils
Cheers,feckers. The name means "oh nuts"
I’m a o’neill

And hello far far relativeeee
where are my far brothers and sisters
What about the "long sword," ...👊🤴🖕
I'm from the march. Don't ever speak ill will toward my family.
The Gallowglasses were Norse/Scots not Irish
mark vincent no over the spam of a few years gallowglass were originally norse Gael (not Pictish all of western Scotland was descending of Irish)but they quickly became Irish Irish joined there ranks and Norse gaels intermarried
The liminal space between Ireland scotland and Scandinavia but being subtlety different from the aforementioned groups.
The kerns were native irish
Here i was thinking Tyrone was an African name
You think you all great o neills. Im british and proud
The O'Donnell's are better
Blame David Not at spelling.
Blame David fuck you
Blame David no
The O'Neills were the heart of Ulster and the last Defenders of the Gaelic World. Since the Fall of Ulster, Ireland has never been the same.
As my great grandmother was an O’Neill I find this very insulting.
