Clan Callaghan: The O Callaghan Family of County Cork.
Revised Edition
Joseph F. O Callaghan
This impeccably researched and stylishly written family history traces the­
O Callaghans (Callaghan, Callahan) from their mythic beginnings in Ireland
to their present-day progeny in County Cork, Spain, the United States, Aus-
tralia, and other places. Prepared by Joseph F. O Callaghan, distinguished pro-
fessor emeritus of medieval history at Fordham University, Clan Callaghan is
the standard against which all future studies of this family will be measured.
   The O Callaghan family is an ancient one, tracing its descent in Ireland
from the 10th-century king, Cellachán of Cashel, celebrated in the annals
and in the mists of legend. From their original homeland around Cashel, the
O Callaghans migrated into County Cork, where they became—and remain
today—one of the largest family groups.
   The core of Professor O Callaghan’s narrative traces the Clan Callaghan’s
fortunes from the extension of English control throughout Ireland during the
course of the 16th and 17th centuries through the great Irish diaspora of the
19th and 20th centuries. For example, in 1594 the chieftain, Conor of the
Rock, surrendered the clan lands to the Crown, receiving them back to be held
thereafter under English law as a personal estate for himself and his immedi-
ate family.
   Following the treaty of Limerick in 1691 many O Callaghan soldiers went
abroad to serve in the armies of France, Spain, and Germany and to set down
new roots. The failure of the potato crop and the Great Famine in the 1840s
decimated Ireland’s population and stimulated emigration. Colonel John
O Callaghan of Bodyke in Clare gained notoriety for hostile relations with
his tenants, while the O Callaghans of Dromcummer in Cork exemplified the
many who were evicted for failure to meet their rental obligation.
   As the 20th century opened, the failure to gain Home Rule dealt a severe
blow to the parliamentary tradition and prompted the Easter rebellion in 1916.
In the struggle for independence Michael O Callaghan, former Lord Mayor of
Limerick, was assassinated by the Black and Tans, and Donal O Callaghan,
Lord Mayor of Cork, represented the family. By this time, of course, the great
migration of the late 19th century to England, America, Canada, Australia,
and elsewhere was on. Seeking to escape wretchedness at home and to find
better lives for themselves and their children, thousands of O Callaghans
(most identified as Callaghans) took part in this diaspora. As the author docu-
ments, they or their descendants achieved a measure of prosperity unknown at
home and some achieved great distinction as historians, theologians, biblical
scholars, military heroes, and in nearly every other form of human endeavor.
   Adding to the volume’s historical value, Professor O Callaghan has pro-
vided sixteen genealogical charts that outline numerous O Callaghan lines,
including the O Callaghans of Rathmore, Clare, Tipperary, Muskerry, Ban-
teer, Dromore, Glynn, Lismehane, Spain, and Philadelphia, the author’s place
of origin. Persons with ancestors possessing the following surnames are also
likely to have O Callaghan connections: Barry, Butler, Callaghan, Callahan,

“much given to Talk and bad Company.” New-England
Runaways, 1704–1754
Joseph Lee Boyle
The majority of the individuals in this compilation are runaway servants and
slaves, but a number are runaway apprentices, both men and women, military
deserters, and errant spouses. This work also includes individuals with New
England connections who did not run away from those colonies.
   The advertisers discovered that tracking an individual by name often lead
to a dead end as multiple names were common, and middle names were not
often used at this time. Researchers should also be prepared for phonetic spell-
ings such as Wamscom/Wombscom, Bargary/Bargery, and Jonson/Johnston/
Johnson.
   If an individual is listed with more than one name, all the names appear in the
index. While many of the Negroes and some Indians are listed as slaves, many
are not, so they may have been paid servants. People described as mixed Indian
and Negroe blood are indexed under both races. Mulattoes are listed as Negroes
with exceptions such as an unnamed “Indian Molatto Man”. Those designated
as “Mustees” are listed separately when of unspecified mixed races.
   In compiling this work, Mr. Boyle examined 23 newspapers from New
England to Maryland, including The Boston Evening-Post, The Boston Ga-
zette, The Connecticut Gazette, The New England Courant, The American
Weekly Mercury, The Rhode Island Gazette, and The New York Evening Post.
Each ad gives a number of details about the runaway and his/her master, in-
cluding names and aliases of the runaway, physical description, personality
quirks if any, location in New England (including the future states of Vermont
and Maine), and where to contact the advertiser. In all, this book, the first in a
projected three-volume series, contains about 1,500 runaway ads and names
over 3,000 persons with connections to colonial New England.

Scots-Dutch Links. Volume IV
David Dobson
Scotland has had strong economic, social, and military links with the Neth-
erlands since the medieval period, but the main period of Scottish settlement
occurred in the 17th century. Scottish scholars had long been attracted by the
opportunities available in the universities of Holland, Zealand, and Flanders,
especially for courses in law and medicine. Scottish merchants and craftsmen

could be found in towns and cities throughout the Netherlands. Scots com-
munities, with their own churches, could be found throughout Holland and
Zealand in particular.
   A small number of Dutch merchants and craftsmen also settled in Scotland,
some of whom had been attracted in 1672 when the Scottish government in-
vited inhabitants of the United Provinces with the incentive of full naturaliza-
tion. For its part, Scotland was keen to acquire the advanced technological,
mercantile, and maritime skills of the Dutch.
   Possibly the greatest part of the Scots found in the Netherlands were sol-
diers fighting in the service of the United Provinces against the Spanish Haps-
burgs. The Scots Brigade in Dutch Service was founded in 1572 and contin-
ued until 1782, during which time a significant number of men from Scotland
fought and later settled in the Netherlands. A number of them and their de-
scendants emigrated to the Dutch settlements in America, stretching from the
Hudson River to the West Indies and Surinam.
   This book is based mainly on primary sources, notably the records of the
High Court of the Admiralty of Scotland. In each case, Mr. Dobson states the
individual’s name, occupation (soldier, merchant, student, etc.), date of the
reference, and the source. Marriage entries typically give the Scot’s name and
place of origin, those of his spouse, and sometimes the name(s) of parents, or
more. In a few cases, the references are to Dutch persons who migrated in the
opposite direction, lured by Scotland’s offer of full naturalization. Visit our
website for information on the three earlier volumes in this series.

People of the Hebrides, 1800–1850
David Dobson
This book attempts to identify residents of the Hebrides, especially of the
islands of Skye, Islay, Mull, Lewis, and Harris, and Hebrideans who chose to
emigrate to the Carolinas, Maritime Canada, and Australia during the early
19th century. The Hebrides are a small group of islands off the west coast of
Scotland. The second half of the 18th century saw a significant increase in the
population of the Scottish Highlands, one greater than the ability of the local
economy to sustain. This pressure contributed to an outflow of population
from the Highlands—of which the Hebrides were a part—to the burgeoning
industrial towns of Lowland Scotland and England, as well as to the Americas
and Australia. A major source of employment for these Highlanders was in
military service with the British Army. Many of these veterans, encouraged by
the British government, decided to stake their futures in America and Canada.
In the end, unemployment, destitution, and the large-scale evictions were the
main reasons for emigration from the Highlands and notably the Hebrides.
   Most modern Hebridean place names are Anglicized versions of the origi-
nal Gaelic place names. The Hebrideans were Gaelic speakers so the Gaelic
place names which they would have used have been added. What is differ-
ent about Highlander emigration is that they—including the Hebrideans—
emigrated as family groups, settling together where they could maintain their
Gaelic language, culture, and religion, often in frontier locations such as Cape

Breton or the Cape Fear Valley. In all, this work, drawing upon primary sourc-
es in Scotland and abroad, identifies close to 1,500 heads of household from
the Hebrides by name, a date, a place in the islands, and the source. Since
most of these travelers were accompanied by family members, the listings
provide several names and relationships of three or four times as many per-
sons overall.

Irish Immigrants to North America, Part 10
David Dobson
The greatest Irish exodus to America occurred between the end of the Napo-
leonic Wars in 1815 and the conclusion of the potato famine in 1851. During
that span, around one million left Ireland, mainly for North America, but also
in smaller numbers for Australia, as well as the industrializing towns of Brit-
ain. Most of those bound for North America sailed from Irish ports, though
others sailed via Liverpool or Glasgow.
   This volume is based on primary sources located in Ireland, the United
States, Canada, Scotland, England, and the West Indies. Such primary sources­
include manuscripts, newspapers and journals, monumental inscriptions,
and government records. The author has arranged the list of roughly 1,000
new persons found in Part 10 of this series alphabetically by the emigrant’s
surname and, in the majority of cases, provides us with most of the follow-
ing particulars: date of birth, name of ship, occupation in Ireland, reason for
emigration, sometimes place of origin in Ireland, place of disembarkation in
the New World, date of arrival, number of persons in the household, and the
source of the information. Visit our website for information on the nine
earlier volumes in this series.

O’Sullivan. The Earliest Irish Royal Family: History
and Genealogy. Third Edition
William Randolph McCreight
This superb genealogical and historical account traces the O’Sullivan sept
31 generations from the author’s Carolina origins to the family’s Irish roots
in 170 AD. Based on examinations of archaeological, linguistic, and DNA
evidence, Mr. McCreight shows that the O’Sullivans may be the oldest docu-
mented royal family on record
   This work traces six O’Sullivan lines to France, Spain, and America. Mr.
McCreight sets the stage for his genealogies with a lavishly illustrated his-
torical essay that places the O’Sullivan fortunes and misfortunes in histori-
cal context. At their height in Ireland, the O’Sullivans controlled hundreds
of thousands of acres and occupied 32 castles, principally in counties Kerry
and Cork. Like many of their counterparts who resisted the English inva-
sions under Queen Elizabeth, Oliver Cromwell, and the Stuarts, most of the
O’Sullivans expatriated to France, Spain, and America. The author’s earliest
American forebear arrived in Virginia from Ireland in 1655. Full of colorful

personalities and extraordinary photos of the Irish countryside and ancient rel-

alike.

Genealogy at a glance: French Genealogy Research
Claire Bettag
Consisting of Huguenots, Acadian refugees, and political exiles, the French
contingent in America has always been viewed as a distinct element in the
population, concentrated for the most part in Louisiana, New England, and the
Midwest. Research in France starts with the vital records of birth, marriage,
and death, which fall into two categories: parish registers before 1792 and
civil registrations after 1792. Because most records were created at the town
level, identifying an ancestor’s town of origin is critical. Once determined
(with tips given here to make it easier), research is generally conducted in the
collections of departmental archives, including notarial records and censuses
that are gradually being digitized and placed online. Municipal archives and
libraries are rapidly digitizing their records as well, and this guide concludes
with a list of helpful websites.

A Field Guide for Genealogists. 2nd Edition
Judy Jacobson
This work from the prolific Mrs. Jacobson is designed to answer thousands of
practical questions which quite naturally arise during the course of research.
It includes sections on the basics of dating photographs and identifying his-
torical eras from hairstyles or clothing. Similarly, legal terms found in genea-
logical records are identified in one of the several glossaries. Other lists cover
antiquated names of diseases and calamities as well as units of measurement
used in bygone days. There are glossaries of genealogical terms, nicknames,
surnames, place names, and occupations. The author has prepared a section on
problems to anticipate at the county courthouse, offers hints for deciphering
old handwriting, discusses different types of calendars, and has incorporated
time lines of American history, migration, and transportation.
    Other topics covered are the range of records at the National Archives, the
evolution of the U.S. census, finding information in museums, using library
vertical files, and much more—all from the practical standpoint of solving a
problem on site. It is the closest thing we know of in the way of an all-purpose
manual to help you once you’ve arrived at your destination.

fying our findings against the original (primary) sources and not relying on
secondary, or published, accounts as the foundation for our genealogies. One
of the most valuable chapters in the book contains a list of nearly 100 dif-
ferent kinds of sources of genealogical information, including anniversary
announcements, bank statements, business licenses, memorial cards, health
records, medals, newspaper clippings, subpoenas, and many other record cat-
egories that genealogists may fail to consult. Still other chapters discuss how
to acquire rare or used books and when and how to hire a professional gene-
alogist. The second edition features one new chapter on the records of lineage,
hereditary, and other special organizations and a second on how to find used
books crucial to your research.

Genealogy at a glance: U.S. Federal Census Records
Kory L. Meyerenk
Federal censuses are the best known and most commonly used of all genea-
logical records and have the unique ability to identify virtually anyone born
in the last 250 years. Today, most census research is conducted online, with
census images and indexes available from both subscription-based and non-
subscription-based websites. Not all websites have a complete collection of
census records, and Mr. Meyerink identifies the censuses that are available
from each website and the nature of the indexes, which are usually linked to
the online image of the census page where the individual appears. (All cen-
suses older than 72 years have been indexed, and the recently released 1940
census is in process of being indexed.)
    This four-page folder also provides 1) tips for research, 2) a list of the best
books for further reference, 3) instructions for online research, 4) a bulleted
list of census search strategies, and 5) a description of the major online re-
sources for census research.

ing out the guide are lists of books for further reading, lists of online research
sources, and a list of the major repositories with Scots-Irish material.
    The term Scots-Irish refers to people who originated in Scotland and settled
in the 17th century in Ireland in the nine northern counties of Ulster. Claim-
ing economic hardship, 250,000 Scots-Irish immigrated to North America be-
tween 1717 and 1776, principally to the port of Philadelphia, then west into
the Appalachian region.

Index of the Rolls of Honor (Ancestor’s Index) in the
Lineage Books of the National Society of the Daughters
of the American Revolution. Four Volumes Bound in Two
Daughters of the American Revolution
The Daughters of the American Revolution was founded in 1890, and soon
after the National Society began publishing Lineage Books with abstracts of
the pedigrees of members. These books show the descent from one or more
ancestors who contributed to the Revolutionary cause. By 1940 some 160
volumes had appeared, each containing about 1,000 lineages and an index to
the Revolutionary ancestors, called the “Roll of Honor,” and an index of the
“Daughters” whose pedigrees were in the volume.
   Recognizing the need for a convenient key to the lineages, between 1916
and 1940 the DAR condensed the names of 50,000 Revolutionary ancestors
in the “Rolls of Honor” and the volume and page references concerning their
160,000 “Daughters” into a comprehensive four-volume index. For conve-
nience, we have reprinted the full four-volume text in two volumes.

William Richard Cutter
This work contains nearly 1,000 additional New England genealogical and
biographical essays not found in the First Series. Each genealogical sketch of-
fers a derivation or origin for the surname of that essay. The family history is
traced forward from the oldest known ancestor of the line to the family mem-
ber (living or memorialized) featured in the sketch, for whom, in turn, a bi-
ography—often with a photograph—is provided. This is followed, frequently,
by additional, collateral lines linked to the subject of the essay. Many of these
lineages go back to 16th-century England, still others brim with Mayflower
connections.

Algic Researches. Indian Tales and Legends
Henry Rowe Schoolcraft, with a new Introduction by W. K. McNeil
Algic Researches is the pivotal work in Native American folklore. Acclaimed
in 1839 for its demonstration “of an oral imaginative lore among the aborigi-
nes of this continent,” it helped to establish the Indian as the main subject of
19th-century folklore scholarship and demonstrated the importance of tales
and legends in piecing together the history of Native Americans. The book
also advanced the idea of comparative studies in folklore scholarship. Most
important, given today’s resurgent interest in Native American mythology,
Algic Researches contains accounts of nearly 50 of the elemental myths and
legends of the Odjibwa, Chippewa, Ottowa, Shawnee, Maskego, Saginaw,
Algonquin, and Sioux.

The Final Rolls of Citizens and Freedmen of the Five

Final Rolls. Two Volumes
Dawes Commission
In 1893 the Dawes Commission was established to negotiate with the Chero-
kees, Choctaws, Chickasaws, Creeks, and Seminoles (the Five Civilized Tribes)
to abolish tribal governments and to provide for the allotment of land to tribal
members. The Final Rolls approved by the Commission contained the names
of 101,000 Native Americans. Most rolls give name, age, sex, degree of Indian
blood, and the number of the enrollment card on which each citizen was en-
rolled.
   In 1907 the Commission published the Final Rolls along with an Index.
The Index volume, divided by tribe, provides the Indian’s name and the roll
number. The roll number is the key to the Final Rolls volume, which lists
enrollees by tribe and category and thereunder by name, age, sex, degree of
blood, and the number of the census card.

Huguenot and Scots Links, 1575–1775
David Dobson
After Louis XIV revoked the Edict of Nantes in 1685, Huguenots fled to the
Netherlands, Germany, Scandinavia, England, America, and in some cases to
Scotland. Most of these emigrants settled in the Canongate, then a separate
burgh but now a part of Edinburgh. Working with baptismal registers, burgess
rolls, tax lists, marriage registers, and other primary sources, Mr. Dobson has
unearthed information concerning over 1,000 Scottish Huguenots or their de-
scendants. For each person, he provides the name, a locale, a date, usually an
occupation, and something about the person.
