O'Halloran Family of Counties Cork and Galway-Norman Barons who secured the clan Fearghaile borders in Western Ireland. Renvylle Castle, our ancestral stronghold now in the hands of the Joyce Clan, former patrons of our sept. I am looking to compile our family tree to Normandy, via Wales (where our Norman forebearers settled before entering Ireland with Richard Earl Fitzsimmons) and establish our Danish ancestry there. Further I hope to acquire information as it relates to the enobling of various ancestors of ours, from Almuhrain the Norman Vicomtes of Galway through General Sir Joseph O'Halloran, hero of English Army on the Continent. I also hope to revive our ancestral clan's netowrk of relation; and am working on the study of the Norman conversion to Christianity and our ancestral religion Asatru.
