Yes, the whole clan was there but they left in despair and went seafaring till they settled in India briefly when they decided it was time to visit their ancestral home in Ireland and re-establish their clan of O'Veradka.

It’s not often I see my family name listed anywhere, you’ve pleasantly surprised me.. having grown up in Clontarf it’s nice to be distantly connected to the battle. Very interesting.

My g-grandfather's uncle was Col John O'Mahony, the founder of the IRB and coiner of the term "Fenian." You don't hear much about him in Ireland, due to the historical revisionism that excludes "agrarian terrorists" from our history. He was CO of the 99th Regiment, New York National Guard, during the American Civil War. His nephew, John Mandeville, was the leader of the Cork Land League in 1887, till he was "done to death by Lord Balfour's government," according to the Coroner's Report.

Not sure if Brain Baru would invite a bad guy to join his forces, but there it is at 7:23 of the video. Beautifully done. Oh, and feel free to disabuse me of any of my visions of my Dooley ancestors, i find this fun.

Fantastic work :) A little off-topic, but what is your opinion on how these battles were organised and planned between the commanders? Because of the vast amount of movement and logistics, it would seem a lot of pre-planning was involved between opposing forces.

Awesome vid and content. My apologies if I missed the answer somewhere. Was wondering if there is ballpark numbers and figures of irishmen and vikings on both sides, generally speaking?

The forerunner of Scottish clans were kindreds, a more Irish interpretation of a similar groupings. It far too easy to presume that Ireland gave birth to Scotland, as kin relationships existed on both sides of the North Channel since early Celtic times, even before the Christian era. The legendary ‘Three Collas‘ were the first Prince’s of a united Dalriada, a wise way of conjoining two civilisations on either side of the water. The marriage of Irish born Riata’s son Eochaid to Aerlech a princess of Alba, was the beginning of a Gaelic speaking, seafaring Celtic Kingdom.

I saw in this video that the O'Hanlons, Lords of Orior (also known as Airgialla) were mentioned as having fought at the Battle of Clontarf, but I always assumed that because their lands were part of the province of Ulster that their overlords would have been the O'Neills who were the Kings of Ulster and the prominent family of the province (and one of the most prominent of all of Ireland, many High Kings of All Ireland coming from this clan). If this were the case then how was it possible for them to be at the battle fighting for Brian Boru? Could they have been allowed to go by the O'Neills despite Brian refusing their offer of support? I would love to know if anyone knows more about this and whether they actually did fight at the battle.

I do find the O'Hanlons almost written out of Irish history. I get that the O'Neills are the more important family and hence there is a lot more written about them and maybe it is that different branches of the O'Hanlons rebelled and cooperated with and against the English, but they, and ok the small kingdom of Airgialla isn't that important to many, but it just seems to get ignored.

Lerasay doesn't sound Irish but it still could be. Irish names could have a Gaelic, Norman, Norse, English, Scotish or Welsh source. Also many Irish who settled in French Canada, France and Spain had their names changed to sound more like the everyday language spoken in the area or country. You'll find Spanish Irish in South America who's ancestors left Ireland in the 1600s.

I am a Hussey, and I suspect more likely of the O'hEodhusa Gaelic Hussey's (There are Norman, (De Hose), Hussey's also). The Gaelic O'Hussey's originally lived up in West Tyrone in what was Cineal Tiarneach, they were chiefs of Cineal Tiarneach at this time in history. after the time of the Norman's the O'Husseys fell from power in this area and ended up becoming Bards to the Maguire clan in Fernanagh, which post they held up until the 1620's or so. After this time these Gealic Hussey's moved out of Ulster mostly... and became relatively impoverished. (the Norman Hussey's had some into Ireland with the Norman invasion, they were De Hose , or De Husey, later Hussey and were Knights and Barons in Meath and also later in Kerry. a old Norman family that largely remained Catholic and lived as middle class or fairly well to so people up to modern times.)

O’Sullivan

Glad to see the Hayes clan git involved, or as they would have been known O'hAodha

I'd like to see a video on the Quinlans who were the last pagan high kings and were cursed by St Patrick to never rule again (still holding), though i susoect this is a back formation for exolaining inter clan politics anong the larger O Leary tribe.

There is a village of Carbury also in Kildare

Seems very accurate. The O'Hynes, (Ui Eidhin) were indeed there with their kin O'Clery and O'Shaughnessy and Brian's first wife Mor, was from that clan Ui Fiachrach Aidhne of South Connacht

Surname Bolan of the clan O'Beollain. (A Norse personal name). The Bolan family held a family seat in Connacht in 1014.

I am so lucky to discover that my 25th gt grandfather Owain Gwynedd, his 3rd gt grandfather Was Brian Boru ❤

Not yet, just their ancestors' possible appearance at this battle, I will hopefully get plenty more videos out this year.

Oh there's a little village near here called Clontarf I thought it was hilarious like the corner of MacNiel and Maclarty.

YES. McDermotts of County Roscommon, Moylurg, and Sligo....

Porter.. 3 bells is the coat of arms/ standard

Despite my surname, my direct ancestor Mahon commanded the right wing of the Irish forces at Clontarf, and he married Boru's daughter. My ancestors were also the Mandevilles, who lived in Ballydine Castle, Tipperary, for 700 years. My g-grandfather's statue stands in Mitchelstown, Cork, murdered for leading the Cork Land League in 1887. He was nominated for the first presidency of the GAA, but was in Tullamore Gaol at the time, being murdered.

You have Carbery on the map up near Dublin; Carbery is on the south coast of Cork, where I'm currently living.

Suprise suprise , my family were there ☘️🦌

Emin the Mormear of Mar was of Norse origin and he led the Norse contingent of Brian's army.

I would like to know more about the Reynolds clans
