OUR PURPOSE

 

The purpose of this web site is to introduce you to our "Clan" and familiarize those interested in exploring their MENARY family tree with our work.  We also wish to portray a sense of the role our MENARY ancestors have played in the history and development of many countries around the world.

Our surname has seen many spellings but all lead back to Northern Ireland. But how did they get there? Many modern day MENARY descendents have reported that around 1688 William of Orange gave land in Northern Ireland to two or three MENARY brothers. They were weavers by trade; likely Huguenots from Southern France.

We have dedicated this web site to the study of the MENARY surname no matter how you spell it, and we invite you to explore our MENARY history pages and learn how DNA is making connections for us in the present. We are proud of our heritage and hope that by sharing it we will help others in their own family research.

The MENARY DNA Project:

 

Our goal is to create DNA connections between MENARY families around the world with the original ancestors in Ireland and possibly France, thus validating the existing genealogical research. We invite all MENARY surnamed males (of any spelling) to participate.
