(O) Farrells/Ferrells and others worldwide often ponder their Irish roots.
This is currently the most comprehensive attempt to explore the origins of one of the largest branches of the Farrells/Ferrells. It includes: 1,400 years of Celtic roots in northwest Ireland, Gaelic ancestry linked to St Colum Cille (St Columba) from c.AD 655, 400-year-old associations with the Ulster Plantation, and worldwide migration.
Those wishing to explore their own Irish family history and genealogy may use the methodology adopted by the author as a template for their own research.
