Carroll Family Crest

Created by Edmond McGrath (RIP) in the 1970s, these Irish prints were rediscovered in 2020 after 40 years in safe storage. Beautifully arranged in this Irish coat of arms parchment is an artistic celebration of the Carroll Irish surname. The Carroll family crest is illustrated at the center and surrounded by famous Celtic symbols of Ireland. These illustrations are a wonderful dedication to Irish last names.

There is so much to take in. This parchment is an heirloom for many generations yet to come. It's a wonderful reminder of your Irish heritage.

The Carroll Coat Of Arms Story

Read the intriguing transcription of the text illustrated on the Carroll family history parchment:

There are two distinct ancient septs from which this name is derived - the Mac Carrolls of ballymaccarroll in Ulsteer, and the more prominent group, the O'Carrolls. Both took their name from the warrior Lord of Ely, Ceardhal, who played a leading pare in the ultimate defeat of the horse oppressors at the battle of Clontarf in 1014. In the early fourteenth century, two M'Carrolls, Donslevy and Mulrory, distinguished themselves as outstanding musicians, the latter became chief minstrel of Ireland and Scotland, and the family as a whole was widely known for its musical talents. More Recently, James M'Carroll, who went to America in 1831, was a celebrated writer and inventor. Nevertheless, it was the O'Carrolls who were the more dominant sept, both numerically and in terms of power and influence. Of these there were two mainlines: chose descended from ely O'Carroll who held large estates in the Rich Pastoral Vales of Tipperary, and the O'Carrolls of Oriel who lose their cheif in the Anglo-Norman invasion of 1179 and dispersed into the coutryside of Monaghan. The descendants of ely also suffered at this time, and fled to the lonely expanses of Bog in Offaly. Here they staunchly adhered to Gaelic tradition and preserved a fierce independance until the close of the sixteenth century. The Carrolls have made reputations for themselves in America. Charles, who died in 1832, was the last signatory of the American declaration of Independence. Carrollton, in Maryland, was the family base, and from herd came the first Archbishop of Baltimore, the Most Reverend John Carroll.

Ready for the wall

I have a bit of history of my maternal Irish family and the coat of arms crest will enhance it. I am placing it in a float frame and will proudly display it on the wall. It arrived in perfect shape and I am pleased with the quality and the entire process of ordering. When I need something Irish, I will go to your website again. Thank you Aidan, and I wish you success in your business!

I bought the Donnelly family print as a birthday gift for my father in law and to say he was delighted is an understatement- he has a great love of history and to have an art piece of his own family history made him very proud. The delivery was so fast and the quality of the print and paper is top notch-If I could give 10 stars I would- Thank you!
