The Munster Irish DNA Project and the Men of Munster -- Who Are They?
Ғылым және технология
We are privileged to have three people presenting on one of the most elegant Geographic DNA Projects at FTDNA. The Munster Irish is a project that explores the genetic signatures of the men of the south of Ireland, the relationships that exist between the various Munster surnames, and whether the DNA evidence refutes or confirms the ancient genealogies of Munster. Please enjoy the excellent company of Elizabeth O'Donoghue/Ross, Nigel McCarthy, and Finbar O Mahony.

My Great³ Grandfather was born in Munster County Cork. My family Surname is Sullivan. I would be so interested in this project! I noticed this video was from 7 years ago. I find it interesting you say the families of Munster could have been from Spain. My DNA also shows "Iberian Peninsula" which is near Spain. This is also present in my Grandfather who is 50% Irish, his dad my Great Grandfather(who I knew as he died when I was 9 years old) who was 100% Irish.

I’m 41% Munster Irish, my family tree says our name was Ó Bucalla or Ó Buachalla now Buckley. My ancestors were there in 1775-1950 then migrated to New Jersey USA
My DNA test returned as 82% centered on the West Iveragh peninsula in the southwest of Kerry. Links in well where my Sullivan ancestors came from. Now I have to do a Ydna to track down my father's family who are Connolly's we think. It becomes an obsession once you start this. Great talk on the families of Munster.

My daughter's DNA was 64% munster Irish. My husband's family came to Canada in 1825 on a ship called the Amity. They were Peter Robinson settlers.
If this project still ongoing and if so, how can I participate? I've already done an intial DNA test which shows I'm 100% western European. Irish and Scottish. Most of results show western Ireland. I have O'Brien as a surname and my grandfather was Desmond Earl Jones. Desmond meaning" from south Munster". Jones is an anglicanised Welsh name.
My 3rd highest was Munster Irish. 14%, My gg grandparents immigrated 1887/1889. I suspect evictions...names O’Leary, Lynch, O’Connor, Herlihy, Aherne. Our locations were Boherbue, Carrigaline, Ovens, & Cork city...immigrated first to Indiana, Chicago, and finally Minnesota...this is fascinating.

My ancestors came from North Munster to Beaufort, South Carolina as early as the 1740s, and include members that were involved in both the Revolutionary and the Civil War. Because my last name is Overstreet, which is the Englishized version of 'Auberstreight', which is German, of origin from Belgium, my family always thought we were from Germany. And while the minority part of our bloodline is German, the majority of it is Irish. My next project is to somehow obtain family records from North Munster in the 1750s from shipping records to trace my family history in Ireland and then on further back in time to Germany, and then finally to the original surname mother country, Belgium.

My Irish ancestors came over to America in 1850 on my father's side and 1700s/1800s on my mother's side. I did my DNA and it said I was 83% Irish/Scottish/Celtic from Munster. (My family names are O'Sullivan, O'Callahan, Murphy, O'Brian, Burns/Byrne, Dalton, Kennedy on my Father's side ) The rest was Norway, Sweden, Germany, France and 1%UK. I was an exchange student to Norway in high school. I asked my host father what Native Norwegians look like as they were from Germany. He came over during WW2. He replied, "they look like you!" This was in 1986. So I was excited to see he was right when my DNA was done and showed Norway. I have brown/auburn hair with amber brown eyes, freckles. Depending on where we lived in USA (We were a military family) People would assume I was Italian, Spanish, Greek, Hispanic, Brazilian, French, Basque or from Israel. Never Irish. I grew up in a heavy Irish community. My children are...one is reddish brown hair, red & black beard with big amber brown eyes and olive skin if tan, second is red hair, green eyes, fair skin with freckles and burns in the sun, third is a blonde with hazel eyes and is between fair & olive skin. He lightly tans. All bright headed.

Dál gCais common ancestor is Tál Cas, not Cormac Cas. Cormac Cas is probably an invention. I think Z17669 is most likely the ancestral haplogroup of tribes which are Dál gCais proper (descendents of this Cas) as 95% of descendents of L226 are under it and it is where the greatest proliferation and diversification arises. The descendents of Cas' sons Bloid (The Ó mBloid, Brian Boru's family etc.), Caisín (the Ó Caisín, Clan Cuiléin, McNamara, O'Hartigan, O'Halloran etc.) and Aonghus Ceann Nathrach (Cinéal Fearmaic, O'Dea, Griffin etc.) all share Z17669 as their common ancestor, all surnames with well described pedigrees leading back to Cas share it. That's not to say it originated with this Cas definitively, but he possessed it. It makes sense that the founder of this dynasty had other Irish relatives who went on to have their own descendents.

@@sue5158 The O'Callaghans are descendents of Callachán Caisil (d. 954), the last strong Eoganacht King of Munster before the disintegration of the Eoganacht Munster kingship (They would later reconstitute in Desmond under the McCarthys). The O'Callaghans and the McCarthys share the common patrilineal ancestor of Callachán Caisil and share a unique Y mutation. This Y mutation is completely separate to that of the Eoganacht Y signature, meaning Callachán was not Eoganacht patrilineally and his pedigree must be inaccurate. In Cathréim Cellachán Caisil it directly says that he was born out of an affair of his mother outside her marriage so this can be taken to explain this.

The account of the Book of Invasions is not entirely accurante from what I can remember. Bilé (or Milé from whence the name Milesians comes from) had two wives, not three. He died while preparing for the invasion of Ireland. It was his second wife and Egyptian pricess called Scotta who led his sons in the invasion. She was a warrior in her own right. As far as historians an archaeologists there is quite a lot of controversy and a more than strong reason to suspect that there has been a contemporary cover-up to protect some academic careers. The reason for this is that some ships were dug up of Egyptian design and no one who tries to access any of the material related to this dig is allowed access to it.

The Guihan surname appeared in Gaelic as Mag Uiginn, which is probably derived from a Norse forename. The name is usually pronounced as "McGwiggen" in it's homeland County Tyrone (especially around Omagh).--- yes this is Northern Ireland but ancestry.com says my blood is from Munster
