About us
Our co-ordinated Y-DNA Project aims to achieve the following goals :-
1. To identify three (or more) distinct DNA groups to verify the conventional theory that modern-day Flannerys and Flannellys descend from three distinct and unrelated septs (Ó Flannabhra of Connello barony in County Limerick, Ó Flannabhra of Tirawley barony in County Mayo, and Ó Flannghaile of Tireragh barony in County Sligo).
2. To identify the sept(s) from which the Flannerys of Kerry, Clare, Galway, Sligo and South Mayo are descended.
3. To identify the sept(s) from which the Flanarys of the Appalachians (and other significant migrant groups) are descended.
4. To verify the extent to which the Flannellys have become absorbed by the Flannerys.
5. To assist all participating clan members to identify their personal origins, both by connecting to other members and by connecting to one of the three (or more) distinct septs.
