The Flinn or O'Flinn were rulers in Gaelic Ireland’s Ulidia (kingdom). The O'Flinn were the chiefs of the Hy-Tuirtre, a people seated on the east side of the River Bann and Lough Neagh in what today is Northern Ireland's County Antrim and was, then, portion of the Kingdom of Ulidia. The Flinn claim descent from Fiachra Tort, the grandson of the Irish king Colla Uais, who seized territory of the Ulaidh in the 4th century A.D.〔John O'Hart, ''Irish Pedigrees; or, The Origin and Stem of the Irish Nation'', 5th edition, in two volumes, originally published in Dublin in 1892, reprinted, Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Company, 1976, Vol. 1, p 819〕 ==Notable people== *Alex Flinn *Anthony Flinn *Hugo Flinn *John Flinn *Kathleen Flinn *Kelton Flinn *Michael Flinn * Ryan Flinn (American football) (born 1980), former American football punter * Ryan Flinn (ice hockey) (born 1980), Canadian ice hockey winger 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Flinn (surname)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
