The McCheane Clan

Clan History...

The surname Mccheane has two possible origins. It could be from the Gaelige Irish 'Mac Seain' (son of John) where in both Ulster and Louth the MacShanes are a branch of the O'Neills. In Kerry they were belonging to the 'Fitzmaurices'. While in Westmeath the 'Shane' family were a branch of the O'Farrells. A second possible origin could be from the Anglo Norman '(Mac) Cheyne' which derived from what was the Old French name for 'chesnai' meaning 'oakgrove', this name arrived into England after the Norman Conquest of 1066 and subsequently spread into Ireland and Scotland. Here it became gaelicized into McCheyne or MacCheyne.
