The O’Haras descend from Eaghra, Lord of Luighne (now the Barony of Leyney) in South Sligo, who died in 926 . In the fourteenth century the O’Haras divided into two branches, the heads of which were known as O’Hara Boy (Buidhe) aka , the Yellow O’Hara , and O’Hara Reagh (Riabhach) , the Speckled or Red Brindled O’Hara. A branch of the family settled early in County Antrim, and became very important there. The O’Garas were once one clan with the O’Haras , and together their territory, Luighne, included the modern baronies of Corran and Leyney in South Sligo , and Gallen and North Costello (Sliabh Lugha) in Mayo . About the end of the tenth century the two families separated, and divided the territory between them, the O’Garas taking the Mayo portion . They were driven from their territory by the Jordans, https://freepages.rootsweb.com/~mallorybrody/genealogy/Eire/Clans_and_Families_of_Ireland_and_Scotland_The_Gaels.html o Teige, the son of Kian, son of Oilioll Olum, (who died king of Munster, A.D. 260,) from whom eighteen of those saints sprung, your pedigree can be accurately traced from one generation to another.

Ancestry[edit ] Eaghra Poprigh mac Saorghus was a member of the Gailenga people of north Connacht . They were originally from the kingdom of Brega on the east coast of Ireland . Dubhaltach Mac Fhirbhisigh (665.5., pp. 654–665) gives his pedigree as: - *Eaghra Paiprigh, from whom are Ui Eaghra, s. Saorghus s. Béac s. Flaithgheas, from whom are Clann Flaithgheasa, s. Taichleach (aforementioned) s. Ceann Faoladh s. Diarmuid s. Fionnbharr s. Bréanainn s. Nad Fraoich s. Fidhsheang (or Finnéan, or Idhéan, or Fidhean, or Iodhan) s. Fiodhchuire, from whom are Ui Fhiodhchuire, s. Airtchearb s. Nia Corb s. Loí, from whom are Luighne , s. Cormac Gaileang s. Tadhg.* The last name is that of Tadhg mac Cian, described at 660.6 (pp. 646–647) as the son of Cian, son of Ailill Aulom . Cian is given as the son of Sadhbh inion Conn Cétchathach (661.1, pp. 646–647). At 660.4 on the same pages is written: - *It is the family of Cian which is announced openly here according to the old books which begin thus below: The families of Éibhear in Leath Chuinn : eastern and western Gaileanga , southern and northern Cianachta , eastern and western Luighne , and the four (or seven) Dealbhna , i.e., Dealbhna Mhór and Dealbhna Bheag in Midhe and Dealbhna of Eathair in western Midhe, and Dealbhna of Tír Dhá Loch in Connacht .* Members of the family feature in the Old Irish tale , Battle of Maigh Mucruimhe , in which Cian and his six brothers were killed in the battle. Annalistic references[edit ] The Annals of the Four Masters , *sub anno* 926, state *"Eaghra, son of Poprigh, lord of Luighne, in Connaught; ... died."* Descendants[edit ] At 665.5 and 666.2, Mac Fhirbhisigh names his sons as Muirgheas and Maghnus. Muirgheas's descendants are given down to the brothers, Murchadh and Aodh Ua hEaghra (King of Luighne in 1155). Maghnus's descendants are brought down to Tadhg and Cian mac Tadhg mac Cormac Ó hEaghra, and their first cousins, Oilill, Brian and Cormac Óg mac Cormac Óg mac Cormac Ó hEaghra, these five men being alive in 1664.
