O'KELLY is a genuine 'O' surname which belongs to the oldest class of
native Irish surnames. It means 'Descendent of Ceallach' (war or
contention), and is the name of several distinct and illustrious
families in various parts of Ireland. O'KELLY was chief of the great U?
Maine clan and ruled over an extensive territory in the counties of
Galway and Roscommon.
The O'Kellys of U? Maine derive their name and descent from Ceallach, a
celebrated chief in AD. 874 who was a descendant of Ciolla-da-Chrioch, a
prince of the royal House of Heremon in the 4th century.
Colla-da-Chrioch was the first King of Ulster after its conquest by the
Three Collas in the 4th century. He had three sons ; Rochadh, the
ancestors of the O'Kellys of Ulster; Imchadh, the ancestor of the
O'Kellys of U? Maine, and Fiacha Cassan, the ancestor of the O'Mooneys
of Ulster.
Ceallach was chieftain of Ui Maine for eighteen years from 856AD to
874AD when he was slain and was the fourteenth chieftain in descent from
Maine Mor.
Colla-da-Chrioch himself was the son of Eochy Dubhlen and his mother was
Alechia, daughter of Updar, King of Alba (Scotland). Colla-da-Chrioch
was one of three sons known as the "three Collas" from whom descended
many noble families of Ireland, as the Mc Mahons of Monaghan, the
Maguires of Fermanagh, the O'Hanlons of Armagh, and many others of the
great Clann Colla of the Oirghialla of Ulster.
The Modern Kelly Surname is Born
The middle and late 16th centuries saw the English monarchy very much
preoccupied with war in central Europe. However by the end of the 16th
century peace had been achieved and the English turned their attention
to Ireland. Their aim was to break the influence of the gaelic Lords by
breaking Irish culture and re-introducing English nobles and laws in
place of the gaelic.
Vast amounts of resource were expended by the English subduing the Irish
chieftains. They commenced on a campaign of the Irish surrendering their
titles and land with the promise that it would be granted back to them
according to English law.
Queen Elizabeth wrote it to Colla O?Kelly, Seventh Lord of Screen near
Athleague. She requested him to drop the ?O? from the surname O?Kelly to
give up of his Irish language, and customs and adopt the customs,
language and laws of the English.
Colla O?Kelly was rewarded well for his allegiance to the English crown.
He gave up the Irish surname O?Kelly, gave up the customs and laws of
the Irish chieftains and adopted the English language and the customs
and laws of the English. In return he was granted the castles of Screen,
Lecharro in Roscommon, Knockcrogherty, Cloneoran, Fadane, Coolowe and is
a large tracts of land in Tiaquinn with the Wednesday market and the
yearly fair at Knockcrogherty. He also granted the right to run a ferry
over the River Suck from Ballyforan on the East to Muckloon in the West.
>From this date onward it was the custom of the family to be known
as ?Kelly?. Thus the modern Kelly family was born.
Colla died in 1615 and is buried in Kilconnell Abbey
