Oriel Septs of Ireland Project- Marron
I have just launched a new geographic DNA project: "Oriel Septs of Ireland."
Because the surname of O'Marron (O Mearain in Gaelic) is listed by historians as a sept of County Monaghan, and because O'Mearn is listed as an occasional variant of O'Marron that occured in Oriel, we have chosen to add Marron, O'Marron, Mearn and O'Mearn to our list of those surnames eligible to join the project.
We are particularly interested in Marrons and Mearns who think that their family might have come from Co. Monaghan, in what is now Northern Ireland, which was an area included in the Kingdom of Oriel.
If you have already been Y-DNA tested at FTDNA, there will be no additional expense involved in joining the Oriel Project. You are allowed to belong to a geographic project, in addition to your surname project.
If you have not been Y-DNA tested, you can both join the Oriel Project, and order a Y-DNA test kit, at our project web site:
https://www.familytreedna.com/public/orielsepts
By ordering through our project link, you will also be given our group's discounted price.
Or, you can just google FTDNA, do a search on Marron, and you will find our Oriel_Septs listed there.
I do not sell DNA test kits, nor do I make any money from the sale of DNA test kits. I am strictly a volunteer for the Oriel Septs of Ireland DNA Project.
Thank you,
Mary Becker
Group Admin.
