The MacTighernan DNA Test
McTernan / McTiernan / MacTiernan
The DNA test is perhaps the only chance to begin to make any family connections as many of the MacTighernan families like a smaller scale of the larger Irish Diaspora have scattered to distant lands in the world and live there today. The spelling of the surname does not really matter as the historical spelling never seems to match the current spelling in many of the families so the Gaelic spelling of MacTighernan is used to cover all the variants of our surname including McKiernan.
To date, almost all 106 tested MacTighernans that know their origins come from this small area in Connacht in NW Ireland shown in green on the map on the left, 450 square miles more or less with the three exceptions, Gus and Terry whose verbal family history states that their line is from Scotland and David (CN)'s verbal family history states that his family is from the Kilarney Lakes, Co Kerry area of Ireland. Clay MacTarnaghan's family origin is in Co Antrim. Based on the DNA study at this point in time it appears that the origins of most MacTighernans, 72 out of 106 are in Co Leitrim. The Google earth satellite image that graphically shows the townland origin of each MacTighernan if known is at this web site: http://mctiernan.com/McTmaps.htm
While Leitrim is one county, it is historically divided into North and South Leitrim with Lough Allen being the dividing line. In South Leitrim from the mid 1500s, the Irish Clan way of life was under serious threat. An increasingly powerful English administration was slowly but surely extending its influence and dominion. In a visit to Mohill in 1540, the Saxons destroyed the monastery and beheaded the guardian and several of the friars. By 1590, the English government forces were actively routing the local clans. All MacTighernans in the DNA test from Leitrim come from north Leitrim with the exceptions of Ed (NJ), [Scott (CO), Cathal, Sean-SF], Jim III and Charles whose family origins are in townlands in South Leitrim.
Philip O'Rorke, The O'Ruairc of Bréifne whose family were the past kings of Drumahaire in Co Leitrim has taken the DNA test. The O'Rorke DNA web site is http://www.familytreedna.com/public/roark/. The O'Conor Don, Cathal Crovderg O'Conor, whose ancestors were the past high kings of all of Ireland has has also taken the DNA test. So far we do not genetically relate to either one. With the tests completed so far we 106 MacTighernans fall into 18 separate, distinct and unrelated genetic groups.
Genetic diversity equals age. The more diverse genetic make up of a population in a specific area, the older it is. In all the world, Africa has the most diverse genetic makeup. Ethiopia, the Horn of Africa has the most genetic diversity in all of Africa which is where the first humans gathered to exit and populate the rest of the world. Western Europe including Ireland has the least diverse genetic population of all areas on earth. So in Africa the population moved and in western Europe they did not, genetically speaking.

There is no way to know for certain what the total number is for distinct genetically separate MacTighernans on a worldwide basis. My research specifys about 431 individual MacTighernans worldwide. I am guessing that many are in the same family. In 1659 only 4275 people lived in all of Co Leitrim of which MacTighernans were 38, 26 in north Leitrim and 12 in south Leitrim.
The below is taken from the book the life and times of Sir Frederick
Hamilton 1599--1647. The Leitrim town of Manorhamilton is
named after Sr Frederick, who was also known for his habit of hanging a
Catholic a day.
In or about 1620 several Leitrim locals were given lands in James I
plantation effort. A Mulmory MacTernan is listed as a lesser grantee
during James I Plantation effort in Leitrim. In 1641, Mulmory
MacTernan, of Lisnanorrus townland, chief of the clan, was a resident
justice of the peace for Co Leitrim. Some years earlier he was
the Co. Leitrim Sheriff. As such he was an important man in the
county also owning the neighboring townlands, Drumbrahade, Lisacoghil,
Lisnanaw, Tullintowell and possibly Greaghnaglogh. The 1847
Griffith's validation list possible descendents: Thomas McTernan in
Lisnanorrus and James mcTernan in Greaghnaglogh. The 1901 and
1911 census list a Thomas, 1871--, and his wife Mary, 1873--, in
Lisnanorrus with two children, John Francis, 1897--, and Anne,
1902--.
The undertakers were listed as receiving the divided lands of
The O'Rourke. Mulmory MacTernan is listed as receiving 500 acres of
O'Rourke land which was at the lower end of the scale. The expectation
was for the grantee to keep the local natives in check. The
grants to lesser sub chiefs [like MacTernan] were to help crush the
power of the O'Rourkes once and for all. The king took a higher
percentage of the confiscated land in Leitrim as opposed to other
counties as the Leitrim natives needed more civilization than the
midlands. In February 1642, Sir Frederick Hamilton sent a force
of 80 horse and foot to relieve the protestants at Parke Castle. On
their return to Sir Frederick's castle they were attacked by 1000 Irish
rebels. After a fierce battle the English won and killed 60 of
the rebels. Mulmory MacTernan was one of the 60 killed.
North Leitrim's largest town, Manorhamilton back in the mist of
time was called "O'Rourke's little fields". Its recent name was given
to one of the most dreaded local rulers, Sir Frederick Hamilton who
came to Manorhamilton from Scotland and founded a castle in 1638. He
was the grandson of James II, Earl of Arran. It was said that Sir
Frederick was used as an example if you were trying to make Cromwell
look good. He was to use the gallows in Manorhamilton daily, to hang a
Catholic. One of his last and many acts of destruction was the burning
of Carr Castle, a stronghold of the O'Rourkes at Glencar in 1641.
Lord Hamilton had invited the local chiefs to dine at his castle with
the intention of killing them while they ate. As the time approached
for the servants to do the deed, the old Irish piper providing the
music for the feast played the song, "Make your visits short and far
between". Too busy eating to get the hint, the local chiefs were
killed. Lord Hamilton and his castle fell in 1652 when attacked by the
Royalist Clanricard and Owen Roe O'Neill. As per Lorcan O'Runai in his
book "From Rosclougher to Rooskey": Lord Hamilton escaped from his
castle hiding in a group of women released by Owen. It is said that he
shed tears as he paused on horseback to take a last look at his castle
in flames.
- MacTighearnain -a Teallach Dunnchadha sept of Breifne; Lord of Tullyhunco, Killeshandra, Co Cavan.
- MacTighearnain -a Clan Fearghaile sept of Fir Manach in Co Fermanagh.
- MacTigernain -a Siol Muiredaigh subsept of ÓConor at Boyle, Co Roscommon; and Rathmactiernan, Killoran, Leyney, Co Sligo
Earlier in the 11th century two MacTighernan families were
noted in Irish history as chiefs, Lord McTernan of Tullyhunco, Co Cavan
and the McTernans of Co Fermanagh. Their lines may well be extent at
this point in time. In recent history, at least since the famine years,
most of the MacTighernans in Ireland are found in Co Leitrim. The
historical family origins of the majority of the 106 DNA testers are in
Co Leitrim. How we might connect to them or to each other is very
difficult to prove as written records in Ireland usually start at
around the 1850s going no further back in time.

According
to John C. McTernan's
recent book titled Sligo Families,
vol II, Leet's Directory (1812-1814) listed three McTernan
'seats' or residences, namely that of Con at Rockfield [noted above],
James of Leonagh and Hugh [ T group baseline ] at Mount Allen in Co
Roscommon whose family was originally from Sweetwood townland in Co
Leitrim.
A recumbent tombstone in Killargue old cemetery behind the chapel
bearing the family coat-of-arms, is inscribed with the names of Farrel
McTernan, 1752--1818 and his wife Mary Dolan, 1752--1798. Farrel is the
given name of the earliest known ancestor of Hugh McTiernan (Bos)
family line who is in the T2 DNA Group.
The Chapel of Creevelea was the traditional burial place of the
McTernans of Rockfield, Mount Allen and Heapstown [and Sheskin] where
large recumbent flagstones mark their final resting places. In close
proximity another memorial links the families of O'Rourke
and McTernan and is inscribed as follows: Here lyeth the bodye of Hugh O'Roirk and
Catherine McTernan who departed this life May 22, 1721. This is
the mysterious gravestone that has the symbols of playing cards, heart,
spade, diamond and club along with the etching of a cat which in
O'Ruaric history is supposed to have awaken him from a nap in a pasture
preventing him from being captured by enemies. The foot of the McTernan
Achievement at left states: The McTernan coat of arms hereby
illustrated is officially documented in Burke's General Armory. The
original description of the Arms [at left] is as follows: Two lions
pass., GU. When translated the Blazon also describes the original
colors of McTernan Arms as: Ermine; two red lions walking. Above the
shield and helmet is the crest which is described as: A Red Griffin
Standing, Green Wings Raised.
This info can be complex so please read the headers and footers in all the following grids to better understand it.
The 18 separate, distinct and different MacTighernan DNA groups
start with the letter T which
is just a naming convention as each of the DNA Groups are in all ways
equal, none being more pure than the other.

Relationship of the DNA Groups to each other: The T and T3 Group baselines only have 16 out of 25 DYS markers that match. More than 1/3 of the markers do not match resulting in a 9 loci pattern mutation event difference. The T2 Group baseline has an 8 loci difference to the baselines of both the T Group and the T3 Group. Philip O'Rorke, The O'Ruairc of Bréifne has a 9 loci mutation event difference with the baselines of the T and the T2 Groups but only a 7 loci mutation event difference with the T3 Group baseline. The O'Conor Don has a 21 / 25 match to the T3a baseline. If you are in one DNA group you do not genetically relate to any other MacTighernan in any other DNA Group.

The
Great Unsolved MacTighernan Mysteries
2. Understand the O'Rourke and McTernan connection in the Chapel of Creevelea as it was the traditional burial place of the McTernans of Rockfield, Mount Allen and Heapstown [and Sheskin] where large recumbent flagstones mark their final resting places. In close proximity another memorial links the families of O'Rourke and McTernan and is inscribed as follows: Here lyeth the bodye of Hugh O'Roirk and Catherine McTernan who departed this life May 22, 1721. This is the mysterious gravestone that has the symbols of playing cards, heart, spade, diamond and club along with the etching of a cat. Tie one of the future DNA testers to The O'Ruairc of Bréifne whose family were the past kings of Drumahaire in Co Leitrim
3. Tie one of the DNA testers to James McTernans, of the Rockfield McTernans a British naval surgeon who was in the squadron which protected St. Helena during the residence there of Napoleon, and was present on the island at the death of that distinguished, but unfortunate monarch in 1821. James was also the surgeon on a British warship in the Chesapeak Bay in the War of 1812. In historical documents the Rockfield McTernans and the Heapstown McTernans [ Rory's line in the T group baseline ] are called kinsmen and are related via the maternal line with the paternal link still unknown.
4. Understand the meaning of the 4,000 year old Cairn located on Rory's Heapstown family estate. What might be the connection to Rory's McTernan family who are in the T Group baseline.
5. The McTernan School: located in Waterbury, CT. In 2005, St. Margaret's-McTernan school changed its name to Chase Collegiate School. The new name honors the Chase family, which helped to found both St. Margaret's and the McTernan School. Charles McTernan from Foxbourgh, MA founded the school. Male line may descend from Charles' uncle, Patrick, 1863--, who was born in Boston. Charles' son Donald married and lived in France having two daughters. This family originally immigrated to the Boston area from Co Leitrim. Long shot for DNA match.
6. Private Patrick McTiernan, --2-1858, service number 3755 Private in the 34th Foot (Cumberland Regiment) was wounded in the final attack on the Redan in the Crimean War and also served in the Indian Mutiny of 1857. Awarded the Indian Mutiny Medal: The Indian Mutiny Medal was a campaign medal approved in 1858, for issue to officers and men of British and Indian units who served in operations in suppression of the Indian Mutiny. He died along the Gangis River in February 1858. His Army records state that he was from Co Leitrim and his wife's name was Jane. To what family does he belong ?
7. Private John McTiernan, --6-3-1876, Private in the 88th Foot (1st Cannaught Rangers) fought in the Indian Mutiny of 1857 in the battle of Central India and awarded the Indian Mutiny Medal. Central India battle: January - June 1858. Awarded to all those who served under Major-General Sir Hugh Rose in actions against Jhansi, Kalpi, and Gwalior. Also awarded to those who served with Major-General Roberts in the Rajputana Field Force and Major-General Whitlock of the Madras Column, between January and June 1858. To what family does he belong ?
8. Sgt. Patrick McTiernan, --<1911, a soldier in the British Army, 3rd Leinster Regt of Foot, service ID 5784 serving in India who married about 1894 a girl named Susan, 1865--1929, born in Co Tipperary and died in Co Offaly [Kings]. They had 2 children, Eveleen McTiernan 1897--, born in Co Tipperary and Patrick Larsfield McTiernan, 2-25-1895--, born in Colaba, St. Joseph, Bombay India. In 1901 the family was living at 4 Melsop St in Birr, Co Offaly [Kings County]. In 1903, according to Patrick's will Susan was living in the townland of Birr, Co Offaly. In the 1911 census they lived on 28 Eden St in Birr, Co Offaly. Sgt. Patrick had a brother named James McTiernan, --11-1900, who died in the Boar War in South Africa. In the 1911 census Susan is listed as a widow. She and both kids were living at 28 Eden St., Birr Urban, Kings county.
9. Jane Aloyaia McTernan, 1888--, born in Calcutta station, Bengal, India. To which DNA group does she belong.
10. Thomas McTiernan, 1883--1893, died at 10 years old at the army station of Mount Abu which is a popular hill station in the Aravalli Range in Sirohi district of Rajasthan state in western India near the border with Gujarat. There is no mention of his parents in records.
11. Bernardette McTiernan, 1890--1893, most likely the sister of Thomas above. Died at the army station of Mount Abu which is a popular hill station in the Aravalli Range in Sirohi district of Rajasthan state in western India near the border with Gujarat. There is no mention of her parents in records.
12. Whereabouts of the McTernan Stone, an excessively heavy round stone thrown by Thomas McTernan known as Long Tom from Ardvoley, the grandfather of John-Rev in the T Group baseline. The stone thereafter was known as the McTernan Stone. The Stone lies now in the area of Killavoggy.
13. Tirmactiernan, Co. Leitrim on the banks of the Shannon/Erne canal system in South Leitrim. About 7.1 KM from Carrick on Shannon. Why was it named Tirmactiernan and what if any connection to any in the DNA test.
14. What might be our connection to Rathmactiernane, a townland in Killoran parish, Co Sligo listed in the Hearth roll of 1665 with Cahill McTanist?
15. A horse by the name of MacTiernan is racing in Dublin for the 2010 to 2012 season. He is running well, previously owned by Christine Kiernan. Why did she name the horse MacTiernan ?
16. Cathal Mac Tigernan was King of West Connacht... died 1059... which means he predates the O'Rourkes. Áed in Gai Bernaig, King of Connacht from 1056 to 1067, had invaded and conquered Maigh Seóla in 1051, blinding its king. Cathal mac Tigernán is the next ruler of the kingdom recorded upon his death in 1049.
17. Origin of the 3 ring forts in the townland of Listernan, Co Cavan and why, the name which in Gaelic means Ternan's fort ?
18. So far none of the MacTighernans genetically match either The O'Ruairc or The O'Conor Don but the T Group is a perfect match to Michael O'Rourke.
19. The unfinished list of all MacTiernans who were killed or served in their country's armed services the many wars for Freedom starting with the Leitrim Plantation Wars and ending with WW II, http://mctiernan.com/mwardead.htm
20. The pamphlet written in 1845 by James MacTernan, <1815--1855, of the Mount Allen McTernans that settled at Heapstown, in Co. Sligo entitled: "An Address to my Fellow Countrymen", in which James claimed descent from Tiernan O'Rourke, Prince of Breffni. Found by John C. McTernan. This James McTernan also invented a new breed of horse called the Buckshot Chestnut. This is Rory MacTiernan's family in the T Group baseline.
21. The McTernan Street in Cambridge, MA, USA formerly Lake St. right outside of County Boston. This is Myles McTernan's family: Te DNA Group
22. McTernan Road, Tinderry, NSW, Australia 2626: is named after the pioneering McTernan family of the area, descending from Hugh and Mary McTernan of Michelago of which Scott (AU) & Richard descend in the Ta DNA Group
23. Origin of McTernan Place, Worrigee, NSW, Australia 2540: is probably named after Barney McTernan, Hugh's son who lived down there and had a stagecoach business of which Scott (AU) & Richard descend in the Ta DNA Group
24. Gwladys McTernan Park, the mother of Richard in the Ta DNA Group, a park in Naracoorte, South Australia, Australia, named after Gwladys McTernan.
25. Origin of McTiernan Close, Wilsonton, QLD, Australia 4350: probably named after Sir Edward McTiernan who relates to Leo McTiernan in the T3 Group baseline
26. McTiernan Way, a road in downtown Minto named on 9-2-2013 by the Village of Minto, New Brunswick, Canada after the long history of the family in fire prevention. This is Michael (CN)'s family in the T DNA Group.
27. Bartholemew E. McTiernan, 12-11-1877--12-6-1917, born and died in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. Bartholemew, his mother Margaret Gilroy and his wife Frances Caroline Gough were all killed in the famous Halifax explosion which was and still is the largest man made explosion after the atom bomb. Bartholemew is the great grand uncle of Greg McTiernan in the T2 DNA Group.
28. Lac McTiernan, a lake in Quebec, Canada, a 7 hour dirve north of Ottawa and 5 hours north of Montreal. Lac McTiernan was named after William McTiernan born in Bryson, Canada. He worked for the Canadian International Paper Company in the early 1930s. To find out more about the man and his father, David McTiernan, both worked in the back country of Gatineau River, read the following book, particularly chapters 14 and 15, Crawford, Venetia, et Gunda Lambton. The Wildest Rivers -- the Oldest Hills; Tales of the Gatineau and Pontic, Maitland, Ontario. Canadian International Paper Company may have been bought by E. B. Eddy Company. The family had a home in the Mason Lumber camp operated be the E. B. Eddy Company. This is Maggie's family in the T Group.

The "Great Frost" of 1740-41, Bliain an Áir, or Year of Slaughter, was a period of unusually cold weather that lasted from around December 1739 to September 1741, it was an event that affected the whole of Europe, though seemed to have its worst effects in Ireland. Deep frosts only occurred during the winter months, but there was little real respite afterwards as the spring and summer weather was unusually cold and dry leading to the death of livestock and the failure of crops, and therefore an inability to prepare for the second unusuallycold winter. Records are scant and the population size only an estimate, guesses as to the loss of life largely through starvation at this period are up to 38% of the population
While each DNA Group is of equal standing, there are 3 main DNA Groups, the T Group with 35, the T2 Group with 25 and the T3 Group with 17. Each group's baseline is where all in that group started. The baselines of the 18 distinct DNA groups form automatically when 2 or more MacTighernans genetically match each other perfectly, 25 / 25 then they become the baseline of that specific group. Matches of 23 or 24 out of 25 markers are in that group just not in the baseline. So there are 2 sets of MacTighernans in each of the 18 DNA Groups, the baselines which are made up of perfect matche of 25 out of 25 markers and the others that match the baseline 23 or 24 out of 25 markers. To date there are 9 distinct DNA Groups that have only one person in each group.
Distance 1: 24 / 25 Probability of a close relationship is very high. You share the same surname (or a variant) with another male [and close proximity of origin] you mismatch by only one 'point' on only one marker. For most closely related and same surnamed individuals, the mismatch markers are usually either DYS 439 or DYS 385 A, 385 B,389-1 and 389-2 from our first panel of 12 markers, and on the following from the second panel of 13 markers: DYS #'s 458 459 a 459b 449, 464 a-d, which have shown themselves to move most rapidly.
Distance 2: 23 / 25 Probably related. You share the same surname (or a variant) with another male [and close proximity of origin] and you mismatch by two 'points' among the 25 markers tested. The probability of a close relationship is good, however your results show mutations, and therefore more time between you and the other MacTighernan.
Distance 3: 22 / 25 Probably not related. You share the same surname (or a variant) but are off by 3 'points' or 3 locations on the 25 markers tested. The following 2 charts show matches that are close but yet still outside of the threshold to match.
Y37 test: A 33 or better out of 37 markers says you are in the same DNA group.

Above
numbers for perfect match of 25 / 25 are in red background - for their
specific DNA groups, the red
+ and green +
sign means the grouped individuals are
related.
Gene who is in the
T
Group is an exception as his 3 mutations occurred in only one locus and
is considered a radical mutation but is still listed as being in the T
Group. Mark may
relate to Martin from Dublin as both families are from the townland of
Leonagh. Peter McTiernan of Canada is related to Michael (CN). Turner
Bluechel through his maternal line is related to Rory and his sister
Alannah.

numbers for perfect match of 25 / 25 are in red background - for the
specific DNA groups, the red +
sign means the grouped individuals are
related.
The
symbol "<" is an event that occurred before that
year and a ">" is an event that occurred after that year,
e.g. <1800 means born before 1800.

The symbol "<" is an event that occurred before that year
and a ">" is an event that occurred after that year, e.g.
<1800 means born before 1800. Cathal's grandfather, James
1876-, had four additional siblings, Patrick, Bridget, Ellen & Mary
Gaffney, nee McTiernan The symbol "<" is an event that occurred
before that year and a ">" is an event that occurred after that
year, e.g. <1800 means born before 1800

McTernan is the sole McTernan in the T4 DNA group and is a 5 out of 25
marker match with the T Group and a 7 out of 25 with the T3 Group.
Clay MacTarnaghan is the sole tester in the T5 DNA Group. A
22 / 25 match or less in the previous grids most likely means no common
genetic ancestor or the common ancestor is well beyond 2000 years or 70
generations back in time, as in T Group baseline compared to
the T3 Group baseline which is a 16 / 25 match. Surnames came
into existence in the year 1120 more or less.
