About
The primary goal of this website is:
to create and maintain, for current and future generations, an archive
of historical and anecdotal information of interest to Nolans everywhere
in support of the modern-day worldwide Clan O Nolan family association founded in Ireland in 1995.
As a clan member-directed initiative, this website seeks to bring together in one place easy-to-use information resources
- to help Nolan descendants in their quest to elucidate their own Nolan family roots
- to help in the writing/continual updating of freely-accessible Nolan-specific knowledge bases
(research articles, family stories, memorials, …).
If you have information which you believe would be of interest to the wider Nolan diaspora whether it be information about your own Nolan ancestry or any information tidbit likely to be of interest to the wider Nolan diaspora I invite you to contact me . Family lines which have already been identified, possibly yours too, are documented in the “Family Stories” section of the website whereas information items requiring further research (family brick walls, etc.) will be listed in the “Tidbits” section of the website. If you have any information relating to any of the information tidbits listed there I encourage you to contact me so that I can update the tidbit information. Alternatively, you could request to become a regular tidbit “contributor“, enabling you to add new tidbits or edit your old ones.
As a Nolan descendant, you are also invited to participate in the activities of the worldwide Clan O Nolan family association which holds biannual gatherings. The Clan O Nolan Facebook group is the primary vehicle used by Clan O Nolan to communicate with its members and the wider Nolan diaspora. You may signify your interest in becoming a formal member of the Clan by communicating with the “admin” person for this group.
Asc regards pursuing further research into your own Nolan ancestry I invite you to join the NolanFamilies research group which meets monthly over Zoom and which I facilitate.
