Overview
Discover the extraordinary thousand year journey of one of Ireland's most storied families in this captivating genealogy that reads like a novel.
From the high kings of medieval Thomond to the O Briens who helped shape modern America, this sweeping legacy spans centuries of triumph and transformation. Historian Sean Kelly, known for his work across the archives of Ireland and the United States, traces the O Brien name from the dynasty of Brian Boru through clan rivalries, famine era emigration, and the rise of Irish American communities in cities like Boston and Chicago.
This is not a dry genealogy. Kelly brings O Brien ancestors to life, from Gaelic kings defending their realm, to families enduring the hardships of the coffin ships, to immigrants rebuilding their lives in a new world, and the modern descendants who carry forward a proud heritage while finding success in America.
Perfect for O Brien descendants, genealogy enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the Irish immigrant story. The book includes practical research guidance, historical context, and clear steps for tracing your own O Brien lineage.
Your Irish heritage awaits.
