Fáilte,
Welcome to the home of Clan Poole online.
Clan Poole was officially founded on the 7th March 2019, after consulting
with Finte na hÉireann - Clans of Ireland. It was that date when the Clan
was recorded as a member of Clans of Ireland. Please see this Public
Notice regarding the Election of the Leader of Clan Poole.
We aren’t just of Irish origin we also have English Scottish and Welsh
ancestry, although no recognition has been awarded to the Clan from the
Lord Lyon King of Arms as of yet, but this will be a aim in progress..
What is a Clan?
A clan is a group of people united by an actual or perceived kinship and
descent. Even if lineage details are unknown, clan members may be
organized around a founding member or apical ancestor.
But, you don’t have to bear the name of the
Clan to be a member of it, you can pledge loyalty to the Clan and its
Chief, thus obtaining membership by that route.
Clans preceded more centralized forms of community organization and
government, and exist in every country. Members may identify with a
coat of arms or other symbol to show that they are an independent clan.
~together we are one~
If you’d like to represent Clan Poole using our Tartan, Cheryl Poole at
Hebridean is our official Kilt maker. Head over to their website and let them
know your needs, but make sure you have permission to use the Tartan first
by Emailing us beforehand.
Clan Poole are very proud to be registered members of Clans of Ireland and
the Council of Scottish Clans & Associations.
