SCANLON
The names Scanlon, Scanlan and
Scannell in Ireland all derive from the
native Gaelic O'Scannail Sept, taken
from a word meaning 'contention'.
There were several distinct Septs but
the most important were based in the
Province of Munster and in County
Cork in particular. Other Septs were
located in Counties Galway, Clare
and further North in Fermanagh.
A Sept or Clan is a collective term describing a group of persons whose immediate ancestors had a common surname and all inhabited the same lands.
