The
Irish Times: Irish Ancestors (O'Hara)
— O'Hara Surname History
O'Hara is a phonetic anglicisation of Ó hEaghra. The family claim
descent from Eaghra, lord of Luighne (the modern Leyney) in Co. Sligo, who died
in 976 and who was himself, in the traditional genealogies, of the family of
Olloil Ollum, king of Munster. The O'Haras remain strongly associated with Co.
Sligo, where they were chiefs in two areas, Ó hEaghra Buidhe ("fair")
around Collooney, and Ó hEaghra Riabhach ("grey") at Ballyharry, more
properly "Ballyhara". In the fourteenth century a branch of the family migrated
north to the Glens of Antrim and established themselves in the area around the
modern town of Ballymena. There they intermarried with powerful local families
and acquired great prominence themselves. Another branch, in Sligo, acquired
the title Barons Tyrawley in the early 18th century and acquired very large
land-holdings in counties Sligo and Leitrim.
The site includes: O'Hara
households by county and parish in the Primary Valuation property survey of
1848-64.
Ulster Ancestry: O'Hara
— This name is equally
common in Ulster, Leinster and Connacht, its main centres being Dublin, Co.
Sligo and Co. Antrim. The name is in Gaelic Ó hEaghra and the family was
originally of Co. Sligo, descendants of one Eaghra, pronounced 'ara', a chief
of Leyny in that county.
In the fourteenth century a branch migrated to
the Glens of Antrim and settled at Crebilly near Ballymena. Here it became an
important sept and entered into several marriages and alliances with the great
families of Antrim. In the mid-nineteenth century O'Haras were still found
concentrated in the barony of Lower Glenarm.
At the beginning of the
twentieth century the name was being used interchangeably with Haren in several
parts of Co. Fermanagh and so some at least of the O'Haras of that county will
be originally O'Harens, Gaelic Ó hÁráín. The
O'Harens were erenaghs of Ballymactaggart.
