The whole purpose of The O’Donoghue Society is to promote a deeper understanding of the individual family histories of those that carry or have carried the O’Donoghue name, and its many variants. We extend our knowledge of the origins and history of the name itself through specific and general communication and research.
-
The society’s patron is Geoffrey O’Donoghue of the Glens. He is one of only twenty Gaelic Chiefs of the Name who have the formal right to use their historic title. He is an active member of the Standing Council of the Irish Chiefs and Chieftains.
-
The Council manages the development and operation of the society. Each member has a specific role but contributes to the whole.

My name is Rod O’Donoghue and I am the founder of the society. My Irish roots lie in County Kerry and I am a student of the history of the Irish, both within Ireland and across the world. In particular I have been researching for many years the place of the O’Donoghue name, and its many variants, in that history.
