McConnell
Thomas McConnell, great grandfather, Mary Kerr McConnell, owned textile Mills near Glascow, Scotland, death certificates of them show family resided or born in Ayershire Scotland. Thomas and Mary and family immigrated to U.S. and built and owned mills in PA, and in Easthampton, MA
My grandfather Archibald McConnell stated our family history as being descendants of Irish Kings, this information has been passed down through the generations, and would love to be able to have our family name traced back, so I can share it with my elderly Mother Heather McConnell Bugbee.
Thank you for any information you could provide.
Sincerely,
Edith Bugbee Tarrant

(Part 1 of 3) The McConnell name has a long history in Ireland, but now DNA and some recorded history says its origin is from the south-west region of the Emerald Island. The McConnell story [dominated by DNA tribal marker R1b-L513, Subgroup O2] can trace their beginnings to what is now County Kerry from 50 BCE. Perhaps the journey begins with the Clanna Dedad; Deda, son of Sen or Deda Mac Sin. The McConnell surname origin is possibly a branch of what will become the Dรกirine [R1b-L513] who are found in south Ireland around 300 CE.

(Part 2 of 3) According to research, the Dรกirine will join with the Dรกl Riata of north-east Ireland and invade Scotland around 500 CE. But how could this be? Recent discoveries from DNA testing are unlocking the migration patterns of Celtic tribes as late as 800 CE to 1200 CE. The McConnell story begins in pre-history Ireland but many of his descendants will then move to Kintyre, Scotland where they and other R1b-L513 members will form the Dalriada. This line and many of his kin will then travel to Brittany, France during the Dark Ages.
