Todays Video Topic: Time: 1:52 The Plantation of Ireland and the Wild Geese Genealogy and Historical Record http://www.irishroots.com/id4055.htm All Lands Lost Quoting the text we find that: "With only two, or perhaps three exceptions, every native landlord, and every native tenant within the bounds of the six counties was dispossessed and displaced; and although a few of both classes were afterwards permitted to share slightly in the great land-spoil, it was only in some other and less attractive localities than their own". Indeed many would eventually come to the shores of North America and other foreign lands as a result of this loss. Of the main families the records show that the Maguires (or McGuires) who occupied Fermanagh; The O'Hanlons who occupied ONealan and Orior; The Macanas or the McCanns of Clann Breasail (Clanbrazill); and the MacMahons of Monaghan; the ORiellys, the O'Cahans and others, had a long and distinguished history. How had several families in the area 'disappeared' by the 19th century ? _________________________________________________________ Summary I thought this an important work for anyone interested in Irish Genealogy or History. As a result we published this work as a hardbound 4 volume set. It is much more than just the listing of names, it is a specific look at the history of the day, which continues to affect the Irish into modern times.
