The O’Carrolls of Eoganacht Locha Lein. Can anyone point me to a reliable history of this sept after the late 1stmillennium? My interest is a combination of my own Carroll surname (traceable only back to the early 1800s) and my positive test for CTS4466 which signals my connection to the Eoganachta and the Munster area back in that time. Of the various Eoganachta, only that of Lock Lein has O’Carroll associated with it. I would like, therefore, to see if there is any known history of these O’Carrolls going from that time up into the 1800s, some 800 years. (Do NOT bring up the Ely O’Carrolls; they are DF21. Nor anyone with DF27 or M222.)
?
As an aside, my current terminal SNP is all the way down to A809 > FT8178 > A806 > FT119616. I share this line with a Meyers fellow who acknowledges that there was an NPE back in his line. I am not unaware that I too could have an NPE back some time ago and that the both of us might come from any other ruling sept from that time: O’Moriarity, McCarthy, O’Donohue, etc… Any hints would be much appreciated.
