Thank you John Joseph for the welcome to the group. I am interested in the Nagle Family near Mallow Cork. Sir Richard Nagle is said to have left Ireland with the Wild Geese and settled in France. There is also a link to the Coppinger family in Cork and the Nagles.

Hi,
yes. There are many variations of my name but mine is the original.
In ancient Irish it was Mag not Mac meaning son. Eadhagain was any horseman. As there is no h in Irish alphabet the h following the d denotes that the d is pronounced as h. The Ma was dropped some time ago leaving G as the first letter. Hope this is of some use to you
