Design your own O'Daley Family Crest

Daly (or Dailey, O’Dalaigh) – O’Dalaigh was the word for a meeting place, as in Dail Eireann (Ireland’s House of Parliament). The O’Dalaigh ancestry goes back to 4th century, to Niall of the Nine Hostages, the High King who had his place at Tara, Co. Meath, and from whom desend also the O Neills and the O Donnells. From the 11th to the 17th century they were hereditary poets and minstrels to most of the leading families. From a Daly family in Co. Galway came six mayors of the city of Galway, no doubt descendants of the famous Daley mayors of Chicago!
