SHANAHAN Family History
This interesting Irish surname is an Anglicized form of the Gaelic "O'Seanachain", the prefix "O" denoting male descendant of, plus the personal name "Seanachan", from "sean", meaning old. The O'Shanahans were a Dalcassian sept of sufficient importance to have a recognized chief, one "Ui Bloid". The territory held by the clan lay between Bodyke and Feakle in Co. Clare, where the name Shanahan still survives. In the year 1318 Ui Bloid and his followers were dispossessed by the MacNamaras, and during the 14th Century they became dispersed all over Munster.Select Audience

I am looking for information regarding Maurice Shannahan born 1822 Clashmore and the family, my grandfather was Arthur Shannahan born in Australia. Maurice married Margaret Mary Kennedy in 1854 Newport then moved thanks

I hope I'm doing this right, hoping to reply to Barbara's comment...
if it's the same one, which it sounds like it is...Honora was my 3rd GG Edward's, sister. ??I have her in my family tree but haven't researched her too much YET. However I suspect she may be a connection to a few other cousins I've recently connected with.

Hi any Shanahans in Cork?
Sue Chalmers
My great great grandmother Honora Shanahan came from County Cork, her 2nd marriage was to John Waldron. I am unsure where she met him, family story says Australia. They settled in Otago, South island New Zealand

Hi!!! I have been trying to find out more info on my family. My GG was Helen Duffus Shanahan (in the centre of the photo I've attached and to her right is my Grandmother), and her father was William Robert Hooper Shanahan. And his father was Edward Shanahan (from Cork). They have been hard to track as they seemed to relocate a few times. Would LOVE to connect with more Shanahan's, especially if we have common family members! But also just want to learn where many are today
