The surname McGovern is of Irish origin and is found predominantly in the counties of Cavan (among the fifteen most common names), Fermanagh and Leitrim. The Irish name is Mag Shamhráin and sept takes its name from one Samhradhán who lived c. 1100 AD descended from 8th-century Eochaidh, a descendant of Brión mac Echach Muigmedóin. Eochaidh gave his name to Teallach Eochaid, modern day Tullyhaw in Cavan. This was long the territory of the McGoverns. Their strongholds were at Ballymagauran, Bawnboy and Lissanover in Cavan. 〔Robert Bell, ''Book of Ulster Surnames'', Page 161, published by The Blackstaff Press in 1988.〕〔http://www.surnamedb.com/Surname/Mcgovern〕 ==Chiefs of the Clan== The following is a provisional list of the chiefs of the McGovern Clan, Barons or Lords of Tullyhaw. *c.720-750 Eochaidh son of Maonach (After whom is named Teallach n-Eachach or Tullyhaw) *c.750-780 Oireachtach son of Eochaidh *c.780-810 Dúnghal son of Oireachtach *c.810-840 Cosgrach son of Dúnghal *c.840-870 Íomhaor son of Cosgrach *c.870-900 Ruarc son of Íomhaor (lived at Dunmakeever, Glangevlin, County Cavan) *c.900-930 Tadhg Tir son of Ruarc *c.930-960 Conchobhar son of Tadhg Tir *c.960-990 Aonghus son of Conchobhar *c.990-1020 Flann son of Aonghus *c.1020-1050 Fearghal son of Flann *c.1050-1080 Conchobhar son of Fearghal *c.1080-1120 Samhradhán son of Conchobhar (lived at Moneensauran, Glangevlin, County Cavan) *c.1120-1160 Muireadhach son of Samhradhán (i.e. the first chief to bear the name Mág Samhradháin or McGovern) *c.1160-1200 Giolla na Naomh Mág Samhradháin I, son of Muireadhach *c.1200-1231 Giolla Íosa Mág Samhradháin (died 1231), son of Giolla na Naomh I *1231-c.1240 Giolla na Naomh Mág Samhradháin the II, son of Giolla Íosa *c.1240-1258 Brian Mág Samhradháin (died 1258) *c.1258-1272 Donnchadh ‘Cime’ Mág Samhradháin (died 1272), son of Giolla na Naomh II *1272-1275 Tomás Mág Samhradháin I (died 1275), son of Giolla na Naomh II and brother of Donnchadh *1275-1298 Brian ‘Breaghach’ Mág Samhradháin (died 3 May 1298), son of Donnchadh *1298-1303 Maghnus Mág Samhradháin (died 1303), son of Donnchadh and brother of Brian ‘Breaghach’ *1303-1343 Tomás Mág Samhradháin the II (died 1343), son of Brian ‘Breaghach’ *1343-1362 Niall Mág Samhradháin (died 1362), son of Tomás the II *1362-1393 Fearghal Mág Samhradháin (died 1393), son of Tomás the II and brother of Niall *1393-1458 Tomás Óg Mág Samhradháin (died 1458), son of Fearghal *1458-15 Feb 1495 Feidlim Mág Samhradháin (died 1495), son of Tomás Óg & grandson of Fearghal *Feb 1495-15 Feb 1496 Domnall Bernach Mág Samhradháin (died 1496), son of Tomás Óg & brother of Feidlim *Feb 1496-1507 Brian Mág Samhradháin (died 1507), son of Domnall Bernach and grandson of Tomás Óg *1507-1512 Cathal Mág Samhradháin (died 1512), son of Aedh, 3rd cousin of Brian, grandson of Eoghan & great-grandson of Niall *1512-1532 Tomas Mág Samhradháin (died 1532), son of Maghnus and grandson of Tomás Óg *1540- Aithne Mág Samhradháin *-1586- Tomas Óg Mág Samhradháin (pardoned 19/1/1586) *-1609-1622 Phelim Magawrane (died 20 January 1622) *1622- Brian Magawrane, son of Phelim *-1641- Charles mac Gawran, son of Brian *-1690- Colonel Bryan Magauran (Bryan M’Gowran) (Colonel Bryan M’Gauran) *-1989 Jack Michael McGovern, son of Michael (Jack Mag Shamhrain) (Tullyminister, Glangevlin, County Cavan) 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「McGovern (name)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
