Brief History of the Clan

Our ancestors were known as "Dalriadians OR Dal Riata" and left Cashel in 463 AD for the 12-month journey to Perthshire in Scotland, where they settled in 464AD.  


The first McConaghy was registered in Perthshire in 1100 AD and this region of Scotland (Rannnoch) was the place where the original "Dalriadians" decided to settle.
