    1. Re: [BEARA] Branch Names for LYNCH & SHEA - Glengarriff
    2. Bill, Now I'm a little confused. Are the sept names the original tribe names? My Harrington Uohni ancestors went by Uohni until my great grandparent's generation and I'd understand (or thought I did) that Uohni was the old tribal name. I notice a lot of name changing in the 19th century. Was there a historical reason for that? Thanks, Theresa > Hi Kitty, > > It's all a bit complicated.

    3. Hi Riobard & all : Riobard, no doubt you have more than a story or two for each of these headings that you gave. Any chance that you will give a fuller account on the sister page? Never mind finding time...... you know what they say " if you want something done, then ask a busy person to do it ! " As to ' It is not right to build a house on a path. ', I assume Riobard that you meant 'Fairy Path' ? There may be some basis for this old wisdom, our Proto-Celtic and earlier ancestors, it would seem, understood how regional and local earth electromagnetic, geodetic ( to use modern nomenclature) energy grids worked. These energy nodal points on the earth are somewhat alike in concept to the acupuncture points on the human body. The great stone circles of the Megalithic civilizations are built on these points as are some later tombs and bronze age burials. Animals are sensitive to the ebb and flow of this energy and there are few from the old days of the horse that will not have a story of where a horse refused to pull a cart or machine over such an energy line. A house build on such a line could distort or break the natural energy flow and result in 'phenomena' in the house. Fairies? Well that is another matter........ I am reminded of a story of when Lady Gregory was collecting such lore and asked a woman if she believed in fairies ? The answer, something to the effect : " Erra no, not atall, of course I don't...... mind you I would not like to do anything to offend them either " On the subject of Megalithic Civilizations, here is a rare treat for you all. There are several lovely pieces here, Rupert is a friend and a son of the author 'Henry Lincoln', so I got to see the film through the Sauniere Society when just out. The CD is now available through several outlets, it is very well made and hauntingly beautiful. I cannot recommend it highly enough!

    2. William Sullivan
    3. Dear ps,   Tell us more.   My grandfather, Jeremiah O'Sullivan, came from rural Eyeries, on the Beara Peninsula. He went to the Upper Peninsula olf Michigan in the 1860's and was a copper miner at Calumet and other nearby places. He had ben a copper miner ion Allihies, Beara before he emigrated. My father, Pat Sullivan was born in Houghton, nearby in 1889.   Sullivan is the commonist name in that part of Ireland,  so it is not too likely that we are related, but its possible.   When you go to Ireland, by all means go to Eyeries, Beara, Co. Cork. Look up Riobard O'Dwyer. He is a retired teacher in Eyeries. He knows more about families in that part olf Ireland than anyone in the world. He is the author of at least eight books on the subject. You will be astounded at what he can tell you about the Sullivans.   Riobard's E-mail address is   bearariobard@gmail.com     Good Luck   Bill Sullivan   --- On Mon, 3/19/12, psregister <psregister@comcast.net> wrote: From: psregister <psregister@comcast.net> Subject: [BEARA] First time visit To: beara@rootsweb.com Date: Monday, March 19, 2012, 11:16 PM For a number of years I have absent mindly following the postings thinking I would go back & read them before visiting Ireland.  I now find myself with the good fortune to be visiting there in about six weeks.  I've convinced myself that my great grandfather most likely lived on the Beara pennisula before imigrating to upper Michigan in the early 1860's as he was a miner and the family name is Sullivan.  Other than what I have been able to learn from the US census records I have no knowledge of his family in Ireland and have pretty much concluded that I will get no further in my search.

    2. There is no reason for you to remember us, and I'm not sure this will ever get to you. About 15 years ago two of our six member group had the colossal Gaul to knock on your door an ask to see you. The wonderful bride of yours told us you were busy and recommended we adjourn to a Harrington branch named business to partake of a beverage or two and then to return to your house.. WE did and all six of us were asked into your parlor. We sat down with two strangers and in less than five minuets were conversing with old friends about Saint PATRICK'S CEMETERY [as you said] being like taking a walk through Berea. We laughed, joked and told stories about our Harrington and Learys with you . It was an unbelievable experience to be so close and relaxed with people we had just met. I know for sure we were not the only people so treated. Meeting with you two and seeking answers about our ancestors was one thing that was great, meeting you two wonderful people was an even greater experience. Thank you for showing us what hospitality is. Jack Harrington from Fall River,, Ma. U.S.A.

    3. Thank you, Riobard and the same to all Beara people. I just finished a post about Patrick and the impact his mission and those of the other missionaries had on the arts in Ireland. It's at http://imaginemdei.blogspot.com/ And now, it may be 11 AM where you are, but it's 6 AM where I am and I'll say Happy St. Patrick's day to all before I go to bed (where I should have been hours ago). I need a few hours before I go out to watch the big parade on Fifth Avenue.
