		<description><![CDATA[Wow!  I really am heading down the rabbit hole here.  I am tracing my family and we are from Maine.  I have made it Nova Scotia so far tracking my Grandfathers.  We were always told we were English but that depends on the time and place in history. Sometimes, they were American and then Canadian and then English. I am sure when I hit the big island there will be more rabbit holes to explore. My Grandfathers had big families and there are repeats of first names and juniors and seniors so it gets confusing.  I would love to have my Dad and Brothers do some DNA testing.  I am learning so much from the comments.  If anyone has any suggestions please let me know.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Damn, I descent from Niall of the Nine Hostages!!!!! How unlucky can one be.  I have researched for 45 years, off and on, and no breakthrough on the &quot;Kelleys&quot;.  I thought DNA would be the answer, but no, I&#039;m more confused than ever.  I QUIT!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I know I&#039;m a decendant of his son Fiachu. Tom Broderick, thanks for that information about Queen Tephi. I certainly hope that I&#039;m not really related to Obama and McCain, especially the first, who is supposed to be related to half the politicians in the USA including Cheney. How did I get to be that &quot;lucky&quot;. Hey, maybe they will let me run for president.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Niall was a descendent of the legendary Queen Tephi of Tara who was daughter of Zedekiah King of Israel.  In 600BC she escaped the Babylonian captivity and came to Ireland where she married the High King.  We may well be descended from her.  President Obama is as is John McCain his presidential opponent.  Her words are recorded in the Book of Tephi translated from the original Gaelic: 
“Hear ye my words, oh my sons, for the Isles shall
Await the day.
Tephi, I was but weak, a little thing in men’s eyes,
A tender twig of the cedar, yet sheltered of
Prophesies.
The Prophet of God revealed this. Is not his
speech made plain?
He came to root and destroy. He went forth to
plant again. (Jeremiah 1:10)…..

Upon me was that promise fallen. For me was the prophet’s toil.
He hadf signed me with David’s signet, anointed mine head with oil.
He had set mine hands to the harp; he had bidden me hold the spear;
The buckler was girt to my bosom, and Baruch and he drew near
To set my feet upon Bethel, the Stone that is seen this day
That my seed may rest upon it where’re it is borne away,
And its promise be sure beneath them, strong to uphold their throne,
Though the builders cast it aside, it shall never be left alone.
These things we did in Taphanes ere we fled to the haven of ships,
And the spirit of God came on me; His promise rose to my lips.”

Tephi has been idealised as Britannia on British coinage.
Queen Elizabeth II was crowned Queen on Tephi’s Stone of Bethel also known as the Stone of Scone.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is one way to prove if these people carry the DNA of Niall. I am a documented descendant of Niall of The Nine Hostages. He is one of many Kings in my family tree. Sample my DNA to those 8 percent who are believed to be descended from Niall Mor. I am not a scientist but my pedigree can be found on smokey mountain ancestral quest through Oliver Plemons, my paternal Grandfather. We are descended through the Ogle family who are descended from King Edward 1 and Philipe of France. Through them, every Royal bloodline in Europe, including all the Scottish Kings and Pictish Kings.  John Douglas Plemons]]></description>
