Welcome to the official McGillycuddy Clan Portal—a central hub and collaborative effort for our family to connect, share, and celebrate our proud heritage. Rooted in the historic lands around County Kerry, Ireland, our clan has a storied past marked by legendary chieftains, influential figures, and a deep commitment to community. For centuries, our ancestors have left an indelible mark on Irish history, and today, we continue to honor that legacy through the contributions of noted members from both past and present.
This website is designed not only as a repository of genealogical records, historical insights, and updates on family reunions, but also as a living, collaborative project. We invite every member of the McGillycuddy clan to share stories, research, and memories so that together we can build an ever-growing tapestry of our collective history.
Our family’s influence reaches far beyond the scenic hills of Kerry. With a vibrant diaspora spread across North America, Europe, Australia, and beyond, the McGillycuddy name resonates worldwide. Under the proud leadership of our current chieftain, Donough McGillycuddy (The McGillycuddy of the Reeks), we should strive to keep our traditions alive while embracing the modern contributions that continue to shape our clan.
Let’s keep the fire of our heritage burning brightly. Connect with me today and become part of a vibrant community dedicated to preserving and celebrating the legacy of The McGillycuddys and our ancient Irish heritage.
With warm regards and ancestral pride,
Piers McGillycuddy
