Dowling One Name Study
The Ancients
Welcome
This sub-section of the Dowling site is almost just for fun. It is based on a book called
Irish Pedigrees or The Origin and Stem of the Irish Nation by John O'Hart
published in 1892 by James Duffy Co. Ltd. This book is probably available to read on a special order from your local library. The part is based on genealogies taken from the Bible so they are as accurate as you believe them to be.
Some of his other links are, I believe, suspect but I have not found a document correcting them and the existence of the individuals is supported from ancient documents. But when people live more than 100 years in ancient times I think that is an excuse to fill the gap in years where generations have been forgotten.
Please bookmark and look-in again.
Thanks for dropping in.
