Epic online reunification of the descendants of the great Irish clans

As our family historian ,Byrne and Mc Andrew, I am overjoyed to find an entry into finding more about my Irish ancestors. Thanks , thanks so much for this article.

this seems like a great idea - might be a way of finding some long lost cousins either side of the Atlantic!!!

This looks really interesting - been trying to research a bit of family history online (Cody family) and it can be tricky sometimes so good to see people coming together to share their knowledge about Irish history

There is no need to reach for the epic mode to talk about a minor website. "Never before in Ireland's history have the Irish Clans reached out to its descendants on a global scale and this promises to be one of the most ground-breaking and pioneering initiatives to come out of Ireland yet." It would be pathetic of this statement were true, if the one of the greatest ever Irish initiatives was a minor website like this. No true web development occurred anyway -- it is just a set of linked Facebook pages. Perhaps Irish Central didn't bother to look at it and just swallowed the publicity handout, or failed to grasp the sheer narrowness of this "achievement".

Would be cool to find other Rose descendants

Sounds good to me! Just let me know how to connect!

Would this include the Eastern European Jewish immigrants I knew who took, willingly or not, Irish names?

Wonder if 'Clan' Babington or 'Clan" Orr makes the cut at this site?

this is way too cool!!! My Great Grandmother was Mary McCOOL , on one of the children's birth certificate it is spelt McCAUL. How do I find crest for her surname ??

Wonderful idea, might be even able to share info with long gone Kehoe's who went to the US in the late 1800's
