history and origin by prominent scholar and DNA participant Luke McInerney. It is exciting that new McNerney and McInerney information is forthcoming with this project.
escendants of Patrick McInerney and Katherine Langan, of Glin, County Limerick, Ireland, split up in the 1860s, some emigrating to The States and others staying in Glin or leaving many years later. Evidence points to the probability that Katherine Langan was sister of Tom Langan, famous Irish rebel known as Captain Steel of the 1798 uprising against England. He was arrested convicted by the English, and sentenced to "transportation" which meant he was sent to Botany Bay, Australia. McInerneys of County Clare came to County Limerick in the late 1700s. Legend has it that they won the prize of five pounds and a bottle of brandy in a swimming contest across the Shannon River, sponsored by the Knight of Glin. They have since been called the "Brandys".
