McMahons of County Clare Ireland

We would like to dedicate this blog to our father Eugene Michael McMahon. His mother Catherine Creagh arrived in the US in 1914 and his father Thomas McMahon arrived in the US in 1909. They both landed on Ellis Island. They were married and Catherine died when my dad was 2. He was separated from his siblings and was raised by his aunt on the Creagh side. Mark McMahon has inspired this blog by sharing with me his passion for finding our McMahon ancestors.

Crest and Motto




The motto of the Thomond sept of the McMahons is "Sic Nos Sic Sacra Tuemur" which means "Thus We Defend Our Sacred Rights."
