O'Hagan
== Family history ==
O'Hagan is an Irish surname originally from the pre 10th century Old Gaelic Ó hÁgáin, meaning perhaps "Little Flamboyant Fire from the Sun", being derived from Aodh the pagan sun god and Og meaning young, they are the "male descendant of Aodh" the pagan sun god, a personal name meaning "fire".〔http://www.surnamedb.com/surname.aspx?name=O'Hagan Internet Surname Database entry for O'Hagan〕 Aodh was a pagan god worshipped by the early natives.
Until the destruction of Gaelic order in the 17th century the O'Hagans were one of the most powerful and influential families in Ulster, as Chief Brehons to the Cinel Eoghain, and holding the title Lord of Tullyhogue (Tulach Óg, Hill of Youth, in Irish) in County Tyrone Barony of Dungannon (Upper), parish of Desertcreat. The chief exercised the hereditary right of inaugurating O'Neill as king or overlord of Ulster. In medieval times, members of the sept were territorial magnates in Counties Monaghan and Armagh, and two places called Ballyagan, (from "baile", a settlement), one in County Londonderry and the other in County Antrim, further locate the O'Hagans.
Chiefs of the Clan Feargusa, they descended from Fergus Cerrbél mac Conaill Cremthainne (Fergus Crooked Mouth) grandson of Niall of the Nine Hostages said to be High King of Ireland from 370 to 406 who in turn descends from Conn of the Hundred Battles the Milesian Gaelic King of Tara / Ireland in the 2nd century. For over six hundred years the O'Hagans were hereditary brehons and inaugurators of O'Neill (surname) who were descended from the Uí Néill.
Before the 13th century branches of the sept were established in County Monaghan and County Armagh and soon spread into the neighbouring counties of Antrim, Londonderry and Down. Two places called Ballyagan, one in County Londonderry and the other in County Antrim attest to the O'Hagans' predominance in the region.
