Originally published in the Young Irelander Newspaper in 1918, this piece sheds light on the fascinating origins and meanings of some of the most prominent clans in Ireland. O'Donovan's account also touches on how the knowledge of clan history had diminished during the 17th-19th centuries, and how the use of Irish versions of family names was not as widespread at the time of writing.
