Mccaulay HAUGHEY ARMS Wheat, emblematic of wealth Wheat in Fess, the belt or banner of a Commanding General Red Chief —signifies Royalty Peacock —signifies Pomp and Power The Motto is Irish and means "A Plain Honest Man" PREEACE The Haughey family in the U.S. is made up from emigrants who came from the ancestral home in County Armagh, and Down, Ireland. The name is derived from EOCHAIDHAwhichwas the name of the fifty— first king of Ulster. The name signifies a MountedKnight or a Horseman. The development from the ancient spelling to the modern spelling can be traced in Duald MacFirbis "Annals of the Four Masters" and in his ChronicumScotorum. In the index of the latter, fcllowing Ua Eochaidha in parenthesis is O’Hoey, Hoey, King of Uladh. The modern families are descendants of the O'Haugheys of the 11th and 12th centuries and of Eochaidha, King of Ulster in 1014. Mac Firbis in his "Four Masters" published in 1666 says O'Heoghy was the original nameof the rulers of Ulidia (Ulster) and that the name was still to be found in that County (Down)as Haughey, Hoey, etc. The prefix_Q in early times designated the son of or the descendant of. Surnames later were used and then at times the_Q or Mac was omitted. According to family lore the earliest membersof the Haughey family in America were brothers Thomas(the line of which this book­ let follows) and Patrick Haughey who came to Penn., Pbobably near Philadelphia about 1725. Haugheysare found in marriage lists of Delaware in 1752 and on tax lists in 1776. Delaware at that time, however, was called the three lower counties of Penn. Like the family in Ireland the first Haugheyswere Catholics but intermarriage soon results in finding names amongthe Quaker communities and the Presbyterian group, etc. Other Haugheyscamelater from the Irish Shores as research on the families here in America show. If family lore is correct, we knownothing of Patrick Haughey's descendants at this time, unless they are the Delawarefamilies. Thomas, the Emigrant, married and had a son John; how many more children we do not know. Thus John becomes the first of this family genealogy born in America and it is through his son, Thomas, a Revolutionary Soldier of Virginia, that the manybranches represented in the following manuscript can proudly trace their ancestry. Perhaps it is well here to say a word about the correct pro­ nunciation of the name Haughey. Someone said it is He—Haw (Horsemenll) backwards. Thus use two syllables Haw~He. True many have shortened the pronunciation and thus we get the Hoy, Huey, Hoey, etc. who may belong to our Haughey commonancestry. Haughey Genealogy Edith W. Benjamin SOUTHWESTERN VIRGINIA "SouthwestVirginia comprises all that portion of the state running down wedge—shapedbetween Kentucky on the north and North Carolina and Tennessee on the south, reaching the Alleghenies in the east to the Cumberland Gap in the west. This area is some 230 miles in length with an average width of about 100 miles and em­ braces 15 counties¢..of these counties Carroll, Grayson and Washington join N.C. ... Montgomery,Pulaski, Giles, Grayson, and Wythe are in what is known as the Valley of NewRiver; Smyth and Washington in the Valley of the Holston; Russell and Scott in the Valley of Clinch and Lee in Powell's Valley...The mountains of Carroll and Grayson are pregnant with copper and iron...Wythe is rich in iron, coal and lead. Smythand Washington...could glut the markets with salt and gypson...blue grass of Tazwell, Bland and Buchananwould fatten the cattle on a thousand hills...with rare exception this whole country abounds with limestone...No country under the sun is blessed with a more genial summerclimate, purer water or grander scenery."(l) This is the merest outline of Southwestern Virginia-—the land of the "Over the Mountain Men", the land of "Before the Gates of the Wilderness", the land of "Wilburn Waters, the Bear Hunter of White Top Mountain". It is to this land that the Haugheys about whomthis genealogy is concerned came, just when though, the writer is not sure. "England paid dearly for her Irish policy" says Jos. Waddell in his "Annals of Augusta Co. Va." The fiercest enemies she had in 1776 were the desccndents of the Scotch—Irish who had held Ulster against James II. The people of Ulster (the Haugheys came from ArmaghCo. Ulster, Ireland, according to family records) had heard of Pennsylvania and the religious liberty accorded there, so came to that region in droves. But the people of Pennsylvania seemed jealous at that time and strict measures were adopted against the Scotch—Irish element, so manymigrated into Virginia. Whether this was the case with the Haugheys is not knownbut it .could have been. This work maynot be the first organized effort to present this family as one of the early Ere-Revolutionary pioneers but up to new the writer is unable to find any public or published writings. Stephen G. Haughey (see 5th generation) who is at this writing (1954) 85 years of age, says that he visited the land of the Haugheys in ArmaghCo. Ulster, Ireland, while serving as Chaplain overseas in England during World War I. It is the hope of the writer that further research maybe done and added to this meager beginning. (1) "Annals of S.W. Va." Summers GENEALOGICAL AND HISTORICAL RECORD of the DESCENDENTS OF JOHN HAUGHEY FIRST GENERATION John Haugheyl Little or nothing is knownyet concerning John Haughey. He is, family research says, the first of the 'clan' born on this side of the waters, a son of ThomasHaughey, the Emmigrant. Family history also says he was in Pennsylvania, probably Philadelphia. Also up to this point it is not knownwhether he took part in the Revolution. Whether he and the family were ever in Grayson Co. Va. (which was Fincastle 1772-1777 and Montgomery (l777—l790) where his son Thomasfirst appears on tax records (found in the Archives, Richmond, Va.) as early as 1794, Grayson Co. Va. is not known. Thomas is listed in the MontgomeryCo. Va. Militia l78l~l785. See Supplement. If further research reveals anything about the John Haughey whomtwo or three records say is the father of Thomas Haughey of Grayson Co. Va., it will be added as a supplement. Spellings are hindering somewhat early research and even now the name is found in various ways: O'Haughey, Houghery, Haghey, Hughey, Hocky, Hockhey, Heighe, Haughe, Hauge, even Haughhe, Hoy, Hoey, and Houie, etc. These spellings are on material definitely knownto be or mean 'Haughey'. Children: (1) Thomas b. 1759 d, 1847 There may have been others——oldfamily letters speak of Thomasas the only son of his father John, however. SECOND GENERATION (1) Thomas Haugheyz (Johnl) According to the tombstone record in Hussey Graveyard, Bowersville, Ohio, Thomaswas born July 20, 1759 and died Apr. 7, 1847. His wife Violet (Clanch) Haughey was born Dec. 21, 1769 and died Nov. 18, 1846. Records say Thomas was born in Virginia. There maybe some question about this. He was in Virginia it is true but depending on whether his parents came to Virginia hinge the truth of his birthplace. References in biographical sketches of his descendants, statements of Revolutionary service as found in several places, all state Virginia as the original home. As stated before ThomasHaughey appears on a personal tax list of Grayson County, Va. as found in the Archives at Richmond, Va. as early as 1794 and from 1802 until 1815 on the ‘Land tax’ list. Refer to the supplement for additional information. Thomasmarried Violet Clanch about 1786. They came to Ohio about 1815, leaving it is understood only one married daughter Jane Barber in Virginia. They settled in Greene Co. Ohio. Literature aboundswith manyinteresting stories of early times in the Ohio country. Onequite interesting story and typical of many others was found in some of the histories of Greene Co., Ohio. This is about the county seat Zenia (Greek word for Hospitality) and is substantially as follows: Zenia —Jail It was the 2nd day of bleak Dec. 1822. There was no person for debt in the debtor's room but there was a stove ~ to warm any of God's poor, if they should be thrown in, and the commissioners with an eye to economyand turning of everything to the public good, rented this stove to John McPherson, for 75 cents a month, to be returned any time, on the order of the jailer, (after a sufficient time being allowed for it to get cool).

  • Crannogs — These Small Man-Made Islands
    PART I — INTRODUCTION 1. INTRODUCTION Islands attract attention.They sharpen people’s perceptions and create a tension in the landscape. Islands as symbols often create wish-images in the mind, sometimes drawing on the regenerative symbolism of water. This book is not about natural islands, nor is it really about crannogs — these small man-made islands. It is about the people who have used and lived on these crannogs over time.The tradition of island-building seems to have fairly deep roots, perhaps even going back to the Mesolithic, but the traces are not unambiguous.While crannogs in most cases have been understood in utilitarian terms as defended settlements and workshops for the wealthier parts of society, or as fishing platforms, this is not the whole story.I am interested in learning more about them than this.There are many other ways to defend property than to build islands, and there are many easier ways to fish. In this book I would like to explore why island-building made sense to people at different times. I also want to consider how the use of islands affects the way people perceive themselves and their landscape, in line with much contemporary interpretative archaeology,and how people have drawn on the landscape to create and maintain long-term social institutions as well as to bring about change. The book covers a long time-period, from the Mesolithic to the present. However, the geographical scope is narrow. It focuses on the region around Lough Gara in the north-west of Ireland and is built on substantial fieldwork in this area.

  • The Formation of Gaelic Surnames in Ireland: Choosing the Eponyms
    The Formation of Gaelic Surnames in Ireland: Choosing the Eponyms Diarmuid Ó Murchadha Locus Project, University College, Cork Introduction By Mac and O you’ll always know true Irishmen they say, But if they lack both O and Mac, no Irishmen are they. Nowadays, this old couplet would be labelled racist, or at least politically incorrect. And even in the strict sense of Gaelic origin, it ignores such adjectival surnames as Caomhánach (Kavanagh), Cinnsealach (Kinsella), Déiseach (Deasy), etc. It does, however, point up the fact that the majority of Irish family names were formed by putting either O or Mac before a personal name. The use of mac or son as a distinguishing mark is a very old and a very widespread one. We need only think of Thomson, Dickson, Harrison, and going back to Biblical times, Ham son of Japhet, Simon bar Jonah, and so on. But the employment of Ua or Ó (grandson— sometimes granddaughter) in the formulation of surnames appears to be peculiar to Gaelic Ireland where it became the dominating formula. The aim of this paper is to explore the development of what is arguably the earliest surname system in western Europe. When the Anglo-Normans arrived in Ireland in the late twelfth century, the inhabitants there had been using surnames for over a century and a half, while the newcomers were still designating themselves as Gerald of Wales, Milo of Cogan, Meiler son of Henry, Maurice son of Gerald. That Maurice’s father, incidentally, Gerald, constable of Windsor, was the one sent in 1102 to ask Muirchertach (‘Murcard, king of Ireland’) to give his This is the text of a paper given to the Society for Name Studies in Britain and Ireland at its annual conference in St Patrick's College, Maynooth, on 18 April 1998.

  • Sample of Surnames from the Census of 1911 of Ireland
    SAMPLE OF SURNAMES FROM THE CENSUS OF 1911 OF IRELAND Compiled by Frank O’Donovan On the Tables below I have listed almost three quarters of the Surnames on the Census of all 32 counties in Ireland in 1911. Murphy was clearly the most common Surname in this sample followed by Kelly. I should emphasise this is from the 1,888 surnames I selected. Interesting too that the sample in Table 2 includes 22 surnames where that surname appears just once in the whole country. Table 1, the first section, is in descending order of occurrences of the 300 most frequently occurring surnames from the 1,888 sample of surnames I selected. It gives Surname, the frequency of occurrences of that Surname and that surname as a percentage of the total population. So the Surname of Murphy was used in 55,673 instances, or 1.270% of all the names of the 4,384,519 people in the country. The use of O’ in the surname was increasing too by 1911 but generally such occurrences were well below the numbers who were not using the O’. Example is in Donovan / O’Donovan in this link. http://bmdnotices.com/remembrance-garden-book/viewremembranceold.aspx?remembranceid=19 However we do see that O’Brien, O’Neill (ONeill) and O’Connor (OConnor) did embrace the O’ in their respective names as with Brien / O’Brien in http://bmdnotices.com/remembrance-garden-book/viewremembranceold.aspx?remembranceid=140 I was surprised by the frequent occurrences of some names and equally the more infrequent number of other surnames.
