Looks like the spot has been found a Y-DNA grouping with surnames Mag-Uidhir – Maguire – M(a)cGuire, and Ewald – Elwold – Ellwood – Ellot(t) (1st in Ulster Plantation) evolved from.

Bradley McGuire 18 hours ago “Mark, If your Elliot ancestor married a Maguire princess…that would only show up in your autosomal DNA not Y DNA (recall, male only descent).” True family history comes when people of the same family share information. Information on ones own family can not be obtained from ones self but has to be obtain from others. When one speaks from their own family, and you are not of it they have to be correct. Bradley the above statement is what I needed. Should be noted that I am Y-DNA related to both the McGuire and the Maguire spellings. ‘hot spot’ census surname concentration localities for MacGuire and Ellwood surname are close to the same. If I were to say the name pronounced Mag-Uidhir/MacGuire/McGuire/Maguire or Elwold/Elwood/Ellwood, would you know for certain which spelling to use. Mag-Uidhir or Elwold are today archaic and you would likely not use them. The best guess would be the names McGuire and Ellwood, they are the most common, but MacGuire, Maguire, and Elwood, are in use today, so you could not be certain the proper spelling was used. Lets say west of Kendal, England there is a grouping of people, but one given different name by pronunciation. One group moves onto Ireland, and acquires the name Mag-Uidhir, Anglicized to Maguire, after arrival of English. The other people migrate north into Scotland and acquire the name MacGuire, and began to settle the Ulster Plantation as McGuire. The other family with an Anglo-Saxon origin name in England the spelling Elwald becomes Elwold then Ellwood, but when it migrates to the Ulster Plantation it becomes Elwood, but some of these Elwald migrate into Scotland and become Ellot(t), migrating into the Ulster Plantatin as Ellot(t), but with influence of the English the name gets Anglicized to Elliott. One of these Elwald-Elliott, then ends up having way back in time on his Y-DNA; Maguire and McGuire ancestry.

Like you said it is not autosomal, but feel it is in association. Could be at a time in which the pre-surname Mag-Uidhir/Maguire/M(a)cGuire, were in association in the Cumbria region, with the pre-surname Ewald-Ellwood-Elliott. Making a graphic showing ‘hotspot’ MacGuire and Ellwood.

https://named.publicprofiler.org/ “lessee, Daniel Elliot,” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tullykelter_Castle Dand (alias for Andrew) became Daniel from McDaniel. The name Gowan, came from McGowan which is in my Y-DNA. By itself one off twelve would not be significant, but since it is a family name, and the Ellliott and McGowan ‘outspot’, are basically the same in County Fermanagh, Tullykelter Castle where family is from it makes the Y-DNA a significant part of the support system to show where the name ‘Gowan Ellot’, originated from. Know English historians like to write us Elliot up as notorious fighters, likely because we fought the England, and married the Irish, with exception of the border English, we married them also. We were not very good at fighting the border English or Irish, because we considered them family.

By: Pam Gibbens http://www.boone-dna.com/FTDNA.htm Greater Houston Weekly / Houston Chronicle April, 2006 Houston-Based Firm is the Largest Genealogical DNA Testing Company In the World More than 80 million people are Actively engaged in it. Numerous websites are inundated with hits from researchers. It’s the second largest and most popular hobby in the United State. What is it? “It” is genealogy, the study of one’s own history and heritage. The pursuit of the past inspires those interested in genealogy to unearth information about long lost relatives and their ancestral homes. While digging around, a few skeletons are sometimes found in the dark recesses of the family closet. Years ago, the duty of record keeping was usually left up to a family member who would scour the libraries and comb through records at the county courthouse to uncover tidbits of lives once lived. Kindly “Aunt Jane” would examine handwritten personal diaries, certificates of marriage and birth and death notices. Like solving a jigsaw puzzle, the process was tedious and time-consuming. Discerning delicious details about distant kin was both fascinating and frustrating. More often than not, a simmering paper trail would eventually grow cold. Today, genealogists and rank amateurs are discovering that their own family trees, with deep roots and expansive canopies of branches, twigs and leaves, are much more complex than they ever imagined. Thanks to the internet and the innovation of two Houston entrepreneurs, you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to be a genealogist. . . . . https://elwald.com/brigham-this-is-the-place-genealogy-with-dna-applied/

Mark, in my experience (with my own personal kit) I really, only look at Y67>. Nothing below that provides enough STRs to accurately assess a kit. For Maguires, I can usually spot an A2 at Y37. Any STR test with a SNP Pack or Big Y to guide SNP classification is FAR better than STRs alone. Also, keep in mind the “testing demographic”. The vast majority of those who have taken DNA testing reside in Australia, Canada, US and the British Isles. Yes other geographic areas have associated Hgs that may spike up their unique populations, but by and large, especially for R1b folks…western Europe and the Isles are the most likely source. And with any stat based research, in larger numbers comes greater clarity. Cheers Brad

How family members are being successful at family history; 1. The family knows best. Those which do not realize ‘The Family Knows Best’, and circumvent the family, makes a huge amount of difficulties by causing the true genealogists to correct the information back to what the family first said. 2. Listen to others, especially of the opposite sex, to make family. Though you may not think that which is coming from the opposite sex correct, the answers to what you said is reflective one and can with little skill decipher from the language, needed family information. 3. Do not in a family search, get rid of the in-laws, though you may want to. FTDNA is not a genealogical site because they are allowing administrators to kick out the in-laws. 4. Families fight, and likely not just one answer is correct, in the history. Families in their research seem to aim their research into specific region of research, giving to each other in the same family answers seemly conflicting, but so close they both come out as being correct. 5. If the family’s history is done properly one does not get to pick their ancestors. Self explanatory.

At least they put that border between New Mexico and Arizona. Know how good the math of Arizona can be; Google ‘AZ photo radar’. Dad, Loren Spencer Elliott at 90, looks pretty good on the Mighty Mo. Note; Star Valley, AZ no longer has photo radar. ‘Hammer’, was one of the names a relative of mine was offered on his birth certificate but he discarded it. The math which FTDNA utilizes in TIP calculation, starts with input of a single significant digit of 30 yrs/gen then get an answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent. Does FTDNA really know their math? Like Hitler would put young men in charge, to determine lives, Harvard put judges in charged to determine witches, and hung them by silencing. Of course my Y-DNA at a proven branch point of two sons. Harvard history is a genetic superior race analogy, which does not confirm proper use of math, and science, but only Nazi type of uniformity on ‘status quo’ history. It is people which are spending a lot of money on not needed Big-Y so Harvard witch hanging types can turn them into lab rats, and have admins on site if they do not like what they are saying hang them as witches in the same manner young boys of Hitler’s squad could sent Jews to the gas chambers.

Through cold and rain we spat and cursed, This ancient war of families. Armies past and then returned, They killed and raped, they stole and burnt. So from the cradle we have learnt, To be as hard as stone. And learned to stand alone. They are gone now, the killing and disorder, They’re just ghosts now, the brigand and marauder. And we give thanks for peace on the border, We give thanks for peace on the border. Cloak and dagger, crime on crime, Anarchy in the borderlands. The king’s men came with a valentine, To break to power of the border clans. Some were hung, some sent away, To Ireland and the low countries. Great was the price they had to pay, God bless their memory, And god bless you and me. The broken towers that stand today, Stand for peace and order. Reminding us until the day, That we need no more borders. Source: Musixmatch Songwriters: Rick Kemp Peace on the Border lyrics © Peermusic (uk) Ltd. https://elwald.com/peace-on-the-border/

Under that name, the d’Alyths played a key role in the Scottish Wars of Independence[10] However, Mark Elliot presents a well-argued case that there is no connection between the Elliot river and town with the clan and believes the origins are in the first name of Elwald, which appears in Northumberland in the 8th century king, Elwald 1.

How family members are being successful at family history; The family knows best. Listen to others, especially of the opposite sex, to make family. Do not in a family search, get rid of the in-laws, though you may want to. Families fight, and likely not just one answer is correct, in the history. If the family’s history is done properly one does not get to pick their ancestors. THE FAMILY KNOWS BEST. When a person lets say MrX, on FTDNA MrX surname blog, says something about his family tree, and MZ says he is a liar, because MZ administrates the FTDNA blog, who is most likely correct MrX or MZ? LISTEN TO OTHERS, ESPECIALLY OF THE OPPSOITE SEX, TO MAKE FAMILY. People need another point of view, and the family tree can not exist without males and females, because that is what it takes to make a family tree. DO NOT IN A FAMILY SEARCH, GET RID OF THE IN-LAWS, THOUGH YOU MAY WANT TO. For instance the males carry the Y-DNA. To put a female MZ, in charge of FTDNA blogs MrA-MrY, with the power of kicking people out of the blog anyone she likes to is that genealogy or Corporate Profit Making? Can a person be kicked out of their family tree? FAMILIES FIGHT, AND LIKELY NOT JUST ONE ANSWER IS CORRECT, IN THE HISTORY. Say two people of the same family have a disagreement on a point. One of the two researchers the other person’s position, and find it to be correct also. The other does not. Who has gained knowledge of the family tree, and is acting in the manner of a true family historian/genealogist? IF THE FAMILY’S HISTORY IS DONE PROPERLY ONE DOES NOT GET TO PICK THEIR ANCESTORS. Needs no commit. Family History as opposed to History, to identify individuals, has to utilize more documentation on the subject manner then History alone. When one goes back thirty generations, that generational line mathematically has more than a billion autosomal DNA ancestors, but only one female mtDNA ancestor, and one male Y-DNA ancestor, which all it takes to produce the next generation. For me to be kicked off of FTDNA blogs shows that FTDNA is a corporate money making machine and does not care anything about families except in profit dollars, for putting they say to much online. It is minute, in amount, it is the others which are not putting enough online which is where the complaint should be made.

Felt that the Garvey, may have be Anglican, Mag-Uidhir in Armagh. The McDonald, and Garvey are of the same Y-DNA basis as the Maguire-McGuire, which leads me to believe when the name Mag-Uidhir was Anglicized that is when they became McDonald, and Garvey. https://www.libraryireland.com/gregg/images/mapping-ulster-scots-9.jpg Would look for the McDonald instead of being Anglican, being Presbyterian, and the Garvey instead of being Anglican County Fermanagh Anglican, being County Armagh Anglican. These changes could account for having the name difference from Maguire-McGuire. Mc- for the Presbyterians, and Anglo-Garvey for the Armagh Anglican.

William Fonferek, the excellent Y-DNA blocking utilized in this blog does distinguish between McGuire/Maguire lines. The Gaelic phonetic name in process of being Anglicize, into a Catholic/Anglican County first Mag-Udhir/Maguire, then Gaelic Fermanagh (monk’s men), produces different spellings, some of the Anglicized names from Mag-Udhir, may have even became McDonald or McManus, in this process, but the Y-DNA seems to as in this blog show the lines within their respective blocks.

It should be noted that the surname Scot(t), is of the Gaelic. Given to one which spoke the Scot (Gaelic), living in a region they did not. When no land boundaries one was called by the language they spoke. If you spoke Navajo your were referred to as Navajo. If you spoke English referred to as English, and if you spoke Scot (now referred to as Scots Gaelic), you were referred to as Scot. A good part of Scotland spoke Gaelic https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/usscotfax/society/images/gaelic1.gif at one time. The inter exchange between the Mc- and the dropped Mc- happens.

“Anyone have any idea how far back in time R-Z16337 had taken place?” is an excellent question. The SNP are beginning to reach almost into genealogical research time, and people which have done extensive testing need to be kept up on the age of these SNPs. 115 to 747AD, is likely in the time of personal name without surname, and may not be in written form, but in spoken form. It is felt that my evolved into Elwald surname may have went into personal of Elwald roughly around 1200 AD, East Anglia.

This indicates migration from Lancashire to the Isle of Man, then likely for many onto Ireland. http://www.isle-of-man.com/manxnotebook/famhist/fnames/amanx.htm “The following surnames occurring in the Isle of Man before the 17th century derive from the names of places in Lancashire, where some of them can be found at home so far back as the 13th century. Those italicised are still extant in the Island, though it is possible that some of them may have re-entered later. Aghton, Alcar, Aystogh or Ayscough, Bradshagh, Byllinge, Burscough, Crosse, Assheton, Bootle, Coupe, Gremshawe, Heywood, Haliwell, Halsall, Holland, Hendull, Ince, Kenyon, Lathom, Litherland, Langtre, Marsden, Prescott, Preston, Parr, Radcliffe, Rushton, Samlesbury (now Sansbury), Shakerley or Shakelady, Standish, Ughtynton (Oughtrington is just over the Cheshire border), and Worthington. Other early family names which are also English place- names are Ballard, Birmingham, Breden, Bydcrosse, Colcat or Calcott, Coupeland, Cotynghin, Creetch, Hampton, Iveno, Kent, Lake, Lecke,Haworth, Huddlestone Hartle, Higham, Moore, Fryssington, Sale (Sayle), Stanley, Twynham, Whetstones and Whinrowe. As Creetch may be of native growth it will be referred to again. Of the rest, many now extinct have left footprints in Manx soil as elements in land-names.”

https://named.publicprofiler.org/ Would like to test this tentative very rough model where the pronunciation of the name went north from south Cumbria, to become the Scottish name MacGuire, then onto County Fermanagh, Ulster Plantation to become name McGuire. The same pronunciation is also felt to travel east from south Cumbria before the time of the Ulster Plantation where Gaelic was the language of Ireland, but spelled the name Mág Uidhir, which became Gaelic-Anglicize spelling of Maguire of County Maguire, Ulster Plantation County Fermanagh.

Were Mc-/Mac-/Fitz-/-son/-sen/-sson/-s (son of), and -dotter (daughter of). Mag-Uidhir is Anglicized; “Irish Surname – Maguire The surname Maguire / McGuire comes from the Irish ‘Maguidhir’, meaning ‘son of the brown(haired) one’. The first recorded spelling of the MagUidhir family name appears in the “Ancient Annals of Ulster” dated 956, during the reign of Brian Boru, High King of Ireland.The pre-dominance of the MagUidhir sept dates from the start of the 13th century in Lisnaskea in County Fermanagh. All the associations of the family have been with Fermanagh and for three centuries their chief was one of the most important in Ulster. Their stronghold was on Lough Erne where they were Barons of Enniskillen. At the start of the 14th century, Donn Carrach Maguire, the chief of the family, was ruler of the entire county.” https://irelandroots.com/maguire.htm Some say pale, Armstrong say; ‘..black(haired) one’

Braidley McGuire, To do genealogy properly one has to hypothesize, and stick to it; ‘the family knows best’. Different families have different cultural values as with different nations, linguistic regions, religions and small towns. The Gaelics and Borderers did not write English history, which predominates mainstream thought in the British Isles. Though I am of a race like the Armstrong before they married those Maguire, blond haired blue eyed, because I am male I carry the Y-DNA. Live among indigenous Americans, where it is politically incorrect to talk about the atrocities, and enslavement of these people which are a minority, but in my environment they are a majority. If treating all sexes and races in similar manner should I because of genetics I am born with not be treated in the same fashion, an my ancestral lands referred as The Middle Shires, should they not be protect from industrialization also? Neil and I are white males, families are of the Scottish Middle March, lands contained in the Middle Shires, both graduate engineers, he from Purdue, where I worked in southern Indiana as a mine engineer, I am a graduate, mine engineer, born in Iowa, like President Herbert Hoover, but not from Stanford, but from the University of Utah, Salt Lake City, Utah where on the west side of Temple Square is the Family History Library. https://elwald.com/brigham-this-is-the-place-genealogy-with-dna-applied/ Second generation genealogist, https://elwald.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/ECS-Daniel-group-history-1.png in 1965 dad introduced me to it when visiting Salem, Massachusetts, we also went to the New York World’s Fair.

When I say all mean more than 95%, at the standard level to say more, so much so if someone tries to think otherwise they are more likely incorrect. When the name changed from Mag-Uidhir, to Maguire, in County Maguire which became County Fermanagh that was the beginning of the surname Maguire. As an Elliott, I can not lead the Armstrong, they come to their decision as a collective exchanging concepts among themselves, and that is how The Chronicles of the Armstrong were created. They were the Army Strong, a pitch-in army of Scotland. For the Maguire to be in The Chronicles, and I as an Elwald/Elwold Elliott, in the same story is more than unbelievable. Since the Armstrong married an Irish Maguire gal instead of one of those English Graham gals, the Armstrong can be trusted. https://gorrenberry.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Chronicles-of-the-Armstrong.jpg https://gorrenberry.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/Scottish-Clans-Armstrong-BBC-Stewart-kings.mp4 The Scottish Middle March, 1573-1625: Power, Kinship, Allegiance By Anna Groundwater May not understand it but we have the support of The Armstrong, as long as I as an Elliott am being lead by them.

The Reformation had been unable to penetrate so lawless a region. To be more accurate, they were nominally Catholic. In practice, they were godless. A sixteenth century traveller in what was known as the ‘cockpit’ of the Borders, on finding no churches, asked a Borderer ‘Are there no Christians in Liddesdale?’. To which he was answered ‘Na, we’s all Elliots and Armstrongs’!

Irish, not Scots, but Anglo Mac-/-son, link with England.

The McCadden and Gilleece are Irish-Anglo, am myself considered Scots-Anglo, because family ended up on the Scottish side of the border.

Our Gaelic root surname is Mag Uidhir. From that the anglicized surnames that follow, are many. Maguire, McGuire, MacGuire, McGwyre, Meguire, are all variations of the same. Some will try to ascribe religious affiliation with one spelling or another…there is some anecdotal evidence that may have been accurate once, circa pre 1800. Not so sure it is as accurate anymore however. The spelling of MacGuire has been associated with those of Scot affiliation. That may indeed be accurate, although in my opinion, the court is still out. I tend to view Scot MacGuires as those who likely immigrated to Scot during the Plantations, but I really don’t know.

Mag-Uidhir became Maguire, and County Maguire, became County Fermanagh, the home of the Mag-Uidhir/Maguire. Anyone which has the surname of Maguire, or can trace their surname to Maguire are basically form County Fermanagh. If someone with another surname are in a Y-DNA group matching people with the Maguire surname then they are from County Fermanagh. When a surname like Maguire which originated in County Magurie/Fermanagh, migrates to like the English Colonies, many like the Armstrong, Elliot, and Johnston forced migrated from the English, Scottish borders to what became County Fermanagh, it is likely Maguire were forced migrated from County Fermanagh, in this process, the name Maguire would likely become McGuire. County Fermanagh is the place of origins of the surname Maguire. The Gaelics Irish/Scottish, took us in, then in the process of Anglicizing names many Gaelic took names of border people. We survived in the Scottish borderlands by marrying those English Grahams, and we survived in the Ulster borderlands by marring those Irish Maguire, not by our ability to fight. Who do you think wrote the English history, the Border Reivers, Gaelic of the English? Hope I do not disappoint you from being an American Border Elliott. If we would marry a Graham think how much easier it was to marry a Maguire.

Hope I am on the good side of you Maguire people. Hope those Armstrong do not get me in trouble by marrying that Maguire lady. Know there is blond hair blue eyed people among you because the Armstrong are telling me we married in to you Mag-Uidhir dark hair an brown eyed people. Do not know if you can claim that ‘red hair’, it was brought by those I-M253 Vikings and us borderers have those I-M253 Vikings among ourselves also. It is the Fairbair (Fair Bear) marring the Elwald-Ellott, (Elk of the Forest). https://gorrenberry.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Fairbairn-I-M253-Elliott-Viking-add-mix.png Irwin/Ivine which lived near those Johnston(e), has pointed that out to me. The Armstrong know I exist, but those Tory/Loyalist do not care for me and are trying to kill off the Elwald-Elliott line. https://gorrenberry.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/Cowie-of-Gorrenberry-death.jpg When the Cowie died off they killed off my family line of the Daniel (Dand alias for Andrew in Co Fermanah became Daniel) by our R-U106 DNA was living in New England at the time. Note this group has R-L513 where the Elliot and many borderers are R-L193 a subclade of it. https://gorrenberry.com/elliot-glendinning-r-l193-sub-l513/ That other group FTDNA McGuire seems to have that R-L21 in them, is that why the two groups are separated. Those Gresham of Gresham, Norfolk; https://www.familytreedna.com/public/Gresham_Grissom?iframe=ycolorized (101829 Elliott R-S16361) which many match my first twelve markers, and three 2 off of 25, seem to be R-L21,have accepted me. but I seem to be accepted by no one with Armstrong excepted with my R-U106. My family is of Bec near the Gresham of the Gresham Castle region in the north part of Norfolk, England; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beck_Hall You can not blame it on me, it is those dang Armstrong, that put the “black hair beauty”, a Maguire in to the Fairy Bear (Fairbairn I-M253) story, and married that, black hair beauty of County Fermangh. Think a lot of those blond hair blue eyed Maguire which made it to The Colonies easily be descendants of that Johnie Armstrong of Gilknockie that got us Elliott hung by James VI, at Calinrigg, head of the Teviot Water which mouth ends in Kelso, in 1530. Those Armstrong sure can get us Elliott into a mess. Just because a Neil, like O’Neil/MacNeil, of the Armstrong took the first step on the moon, those Armstrong, even though the largest family of the Middle March Scottish side of the Border, those Armstong, Elliott, Nixon, and the Crozier, those which stood up for Catholic Queen Marie of the Scots, and when her son taken by the Protestants, James VI, of Scotland we were the first ones when he became James I of England he wanted to get rid of, so we moved in among the Maguire. If it wasn’t for that President Nixon also of the Middle March family, Armstrong may not have been the first to step on the moon. Can you believe a name like Crozier. It sounds like something St. Patrick would use to chase the snakes out of Ireland. Armstrong and Elliott were not very religious. Someone came to the borders, and seeing no churches, knocked on the door and asked.”are there any Christains”, reply, “no we’s Armstrong and Elliott”. Supporting Marie Queen of Scotland, and being Royalists, we fit right in with those Maguire of Co Maguire/Fermanagh. Our notorious 29th chief lives at Redheugh, Liddesdale, Scotland, lands acquired about c.1500. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0LvU-EISTU At time of Border Pacification (genocide) those Redheugh-Stobs Elliot were the ‘good’, Elliot, guess which ones the Maguire ended up with?

This is also referred to as “Dord-Fian” in the Finn McCool story of the Palace of the Quicken Trees – and other sources. I do not currently plan to go into battle, but should it happen I would prefer to be prepared. THANKS!

Greetings, I am Joe McGuire (kit 20012). The Annals of the Four Masters and the Annals of Ulster both mention the “death by foreigners” (i.e., Norsemen) of Tanaidhe Mac Uidhir, comarb (tribal head) of Bennchair (Bangor) and successor of Comhghall in ~957 AD. This is the first known record of the Maguire surname I have found. I dug for information about Saint Comgall, the abbot of Bangor, County Down (~558 AD) and his earlier ascetic seclusion on Lough Erne (Fermanaugh) sparked my interest. I find the connection to Fermanaugh intriguing and would like to know more about this. The Bangor Abbey was apparently a very important center of learning in this period and missionaries from there established several important European monasteries. It was located across from Carrickfergus on Belfast Lough. Comgall is said to have been a friend to Saint Brendan the Navigator, etc. Has anyone researched this? What are some good sources? THANKS!

The handwriting is really hard to figure out, but we thought it might be “Drumlyon”. Anyway, the marriage took place in 1820, and they lived in Cleggan townland until emigration in 1847. Thomas is my most distant Maguire ancestor, born perhaps in 1782. My haplogroup is RM269 as far as I know, and my kit # is 364493, tested to 111.

Does anyone know of any living male descendants (likely his great-grandsons) from James Adger McGuire on February 23, 1805 in Owsley county of Kentucky?

I am wondering if they might have already taken a DNA test that they would be willing to share their results with me, or consider taking one. My uncle Marshall discovered that he really is not a Phillips, and I have strong evidence that his biological grandmother married a James McGuire in 1881 in Rockcastle, Kentucky.

While that wouldn’t be my family branch, I highly recommend a male-line descendant taking the Y-111 test. As the various testing levels (12 markers, 25 …111) come in over a few weeks IF the genetic surname has been sufficiently tested you should see it “rise to the top”, as I did McGuire, confirming a suspicion. You have working in your favor that McGuire and L513 haplogroup generally, is pretty well represented in the database.

Here’s a site that gives one way to pronounce it: Mag Uidhir – Library Ireland: www.libraryireland.com/names/mag/mag-uidhir.php The origin and meaning of the surname Mag Uidhir, Maguire, MacGuire, MacGiver, from Irish … The name is sometimes pronounced dialectically Mac Guibhir.

I asked a Gaelic speaker once at a pub in Lisdoonvarna. He laughed at me and said it was pronounced ‘McGuire’ So it seems as if he agrees with Josiah!

I noticed that the Ireland y-DNA project has 27 Maguire and 30 McGuire surname participants whereas this project has 14 Maguire and 17 McGuire. I am sure there is overlap but wouldn’t there be a benefit to have the others join this project? There is a list of the DNA results on that site. Has anyone from this project looked at them for additional information?

Hello Donald, we would be very happy for all of them to join the project. I do not have their email addresses to invite them however.

Since I belong to both groups, I posted an invite on the Ireland y-DNA activity feed to male Maguire, McGuire, and MacGuire, etc. Hope this brings some new members.

We traveled to Fermanagh Co. Ireland in 2006. One thing that I did not (as also seen in the pictures of the tombstones there) is that all the gravestones and stone castle remains are eroding away! Apparently from acid rain. I’m guessing from the hundreds of years of burning peat for fuel, and also in electric power plants as well. It’s very disconcerting and awful to see dates and names disappearing from these gravestones so quickly! In another 50 years, most old gravestones will be unreadable at all. I hope there’s an organization there in Ireland that’s been recording down the data before it’s gone!

Another problem is searchers/tourists (like me) who don’t know how to properly and carefully expose the inscriptions. The erosion is much quicker if you’re not careful.

I would guess that a lot of these inscriptions are going to disappear much sooner than the 50 years I mentioned before. I would say in the next 10 years would be more like. The stone for these tombstones over in Ireland may be softer than here in America, and the acid rain is probably able to dissolve them much quicker.

MacGUIRE is a distinguished Gaelic or [K]eltic family. According to ‘The Origin Of Clan Maguire’ by Miss Ivy Rooney, the Maguire clan is said to have originated in the middle of Ireland in the County of Westmeath, in the province of Leinster and to have moved from there to the county of Fermanagh in the province of Ulster, modern day Northern Ireland. (source: Kathleen Neil Maguire Bulletin 1996 p.11)
The name is derived from the Irish Gaelic, Mag-Uidhir (Mag, Mac – son of & Uidhir – Dun colored, sallow). You can hear the actual pronunciation in Irish of the name at the PBS site Irish in America – Maguire.
Uidhir is the possessive form of the proper name of Odhar & an interesting fact about that name is that it was in common use at the time of our progenitor because people are prone to name their children after hero’s, Odhar being the name sake of a “hero-saint” who was St. Patrick’s servant & chariot-driver, who reputedly saved his master’s life by taking his place when his life was sought by pagans in about 452 A.D.
(For more information on this please consult The Catholic Encyclopedia, Volume XI and do a search on the page for the name of Odhran.
Today, the Maguire surname is approximately 39th place of the most common surnames in Ireland, but it definitely holds first place in the County of Fermanagh! The majority of those who use the spelling Maguire are chiefly associated with County Fermanagh, in Northern Ireland, and those who use the spelling MacGuire or McGuire usually originated from Mayo or Roscommon. Other various spellings of this surname are; MacGiver, MacGuier, MacGuiver, MacGuire, MacGwire, Macquer, Macquire, Maguier, Maguir, Maguyre, Magwire, McGuire, McQuire.
On looking up your website I thought that I should point out that our tartan is Scottish not Irish as I am recorded with the Lord Lyon as the first Scottish Maguire. I have attached a picture of the tartan so that it may be seen in real form rather than on print so that your potential customers may get a better idea of what the tartan looks like, I have also attached the Scottish crest that can be worn by any Scottish Maguire I do hope that this may be of help to you as any time that we wear the kilt people always remark on how nice the tartan is, thank you once again for your good work in setting this up for us. Would be kind enough to let us know if this gets through to you.
Kind regards
