Ancient Kinsella Lineage

Home

Genealogy was extremely important to all the free classes in ancient Ireland because social standing was determined by hereditary right.

In this listing of the Kinsella genealogy, the first thirty five generations, which include biblical names and the names of the Gaels (the name the Irish give to the first Celtic invaders of Ireland) that wandered all over the Mediterranean Sea are purely the invention of enthusiastic monks that were trying to make Irish genealogy agree with biblical information.

The story of the landing in Ireland around 1800 BC as recorded in the "Book of Invasions" is considered mythology, similar to that of the Greek and Roman ancestor myths.

The next fifty odd generations after the Milesians are likewise considered to be mythological, although it is conceded that the activities of these people in some cases may refer to actual historical events.

All the leading families in Ireland trace themselves back to one of the four Milesian chieftains that supposedly were leaders of the first Celtic invasion of Ireland. Douglas Hyde in his, "A Literary History of Ireland" concludes that the long list of descendants from these chieftains should be discarded until we reach names of people that lived in the third or fourth century A.D. It is at this time that most of the noble genealogies converge. He believes that genealogy lists after this point in time should be considered to be authentic.

Hyde goes on to state that there is one family line that appears to be much older than the rest. He says that the most ancient of all Irish pedigrees is the line of Leinster Kings which goes back to around 300 B.C., at which point it joins the "artificial" list of names that leads back to the Milesians. It is from this line that the Kinsellas descend.

  11. Japhet: eldest son of Noah. He had 15 sons, amongst whom he divided Europe, and the part of Asia his father had allotted to him.
  12. Magog: his son, from whom descended the Parthians, Gadelians, Amazonians, etc; also Bartholinus, the first planter of Ireland, about three hundred years after the flood
  13. Baoth: one of the sons of Magog, to whom Scythia came as his lot upon the division of the earth by Noah, and subsequently by Japhet, of his part thereof among his sons
  14. Phoeniusa (Fenius) Farsaidh:inventor of Letters.
  15. Niul: after his father's return to Scythia, continued some time at Aeothania, teaching the languages and other laudable sciences, until, upon report of his great learning, he was invited into Egypt by Pharaoh, the king who gave him the land of Campuss Eyrunt, near the Red Sea, to inhabit, and heal so gave him his daughter Scota in marriage, from whom their posterity are ever since called the Scots. It was this Niulus who employed Gaodhal (Gael) son of Eighor, a learned and skillful man, to compose, or rather refine, the language called Bearla Tobbai, which was common to the posterity of Niulus, and was afterwards called "Gaodh-ilg" from the said Gaodhal, who composed and improved it, and for his sake also Niulus called his eldest son "Gaodhal"
  16. Gaodhal: the son of Niulus, was the ancestor of the Clan na Gael; that is, the children or descendants of Gaodhal. In his youth this Gaodhal was stung in the neck by a serpent, and was immediately brought to Moses, who, by laying the miraculous rod on the wounded place, cured him, and, in addition to this cure, he obtained a further blessing, which we enjoy to the present day--namely, that no venomous beast can live at any time where his posterity should inhabit, which privilege is verified in Candia, Getulea, and Ireland.
  17. Asruth: his son, continued in Egypt, and governed his colony in peace during his life
  18. Sruth: his son, soon after his father's death, was set upon by the Egyptians, actuated by their former animosities towards his predecessors, for having taken part with the Israelites against them, and which animosities had, until then, lain raked up in the embers, but which now broke out into a flame, to that degree that, after many battles and conflicts, wherein most of his colony lost their lives, Sruth was forced, with the few remaining, to depart the country, and after many traverses at sea, arrived at the Island of Crete, or Candia, where he died.
  19. Heber Scutt: after his father's death, and a year's stay at Crete, departed thence, leaving some of his people to inherit the island, and where some of their posterity likely remain, as the islands harbor no venomous serpents ever since. He and his people soon after arrived in Scythia, where his cousins, the posterity of Nenuallus (eldest son of Farsa), refusing to allot a place of habitation for him and his colony, they fought many battles, wherein Heber, being always the victor, at length forced the sovereignty from the reigning king, and settling himself and his colony in Scythia, they continued there for four generations. Heber Scott was afterwa rds slain in battle, by Noemus, the son of the former king.

  24. Lamhfionn: and his fleet remained at sea or some time after his father's death, resting and refreshing themselves upon such islands as they me t with. It was then that Cachear, their magician or Druid, foretold that there would be no end to their wanderings and travels, until they would arrive in the western island of Europe called Ireland, which was the place destined for their future and final abode, and that no only they but their posterity after three hundred years should arrive there. After many traverses of fortune at sea this little fleet arrived at last with their leader at Gothia or Gethulia, more recently Libya, where Carthage was afterwards built, and soon afterwards Lamhfoin died there.
  25. Heber Glunfionn: his son, was born in Getulia where he also died. His posterity continued there to the eighth generation, and were kings or rulers for one hundred and fifty years and upwards.

  33. Brath: was born in Gothia. Remembering the Druid predictions, an d his people having increased considerably during their abode in Getulia, he departed thence with a numerous fleet, to seek out the country destined for their final settlement by the prophecy of Cachear. After some time he landed on the coast of Spain, and by the strong hand settled himself and his colony in Galicia, in the north of that country.
  34. Breoghan (Brigus): a quo the "Brigantes": was king of Galicia, Andalusia, Murcia, Castile, and Portugal, all of which he conquered. He built Breoghans Towe r, or Brigantia, in Galicia, and the City of Braganza, in Portugal, called after himself. The kingdom of Castile was then called Brigia after him also.
  35. Bile: was king of those countries after his father's death, and was succeeded by his son Milesius (Galamh). This Bile had a brother named Ithe.

There, too, about a century before the Christian era, the Monarch Eochy Feidlioch erected a royal residence and a great rath, called Rath Cruachan, after his queen, Cruachan Croidheirg, mother of Maeve (famous from Red Branch stories)
    2. Luigne
