September 9th is the Irish Feast Day for St Ciaran. St Ciaran (as far as I know), is the earliest known MacAntSaoir 'Son of the Carpenter' ie McIntyre, McIntire McEntyre, McEntire, McAteer, etc. How about we have a special Mc posting day on Sep 9th ( plus or minus 1 or 2 days)? Post your tree. Post your questions. Post your Mc stories. Or Just say hello. This can be our once a year McParty. For more on St. Ciaran see this section from Clan McAteer. http://www.ncf.carleton.ca/~cd200/mac39.html Ciaran Mhac an t'Saoir was born at Fuerty, County Roscommon in 512 AD. He was the son of Beoit, a carpenter and chariot maker to the High King of Tara.
