Actually, an edited version of the essay with more details on Y-DNA testing has already been published in the 2025 Nov./Dec. issue of History Ireland magazine. I am very honored our work on the genealogy and history of the Dál Cuinn has been recognized by such distinguished organizations. It is my sincere hope that this will spur more native Irishmen to do Y-DNA testing and grow our Cladogram for the Dál Cuinn.ANNOUNCING THE CLANS OF IRELAND and STANDING COUNCIL OF IRISH CHIEFTANS 2025 ESSAY COMPETITION WINNER
