Why the rerun? This is almost the same exact question you asked a few weeks back...and since voters picked the best answer, it makes me wonder if you even read the replies you got the first time around.


The answer is that you will not know if your ancestors fought the British (or anyone) unless you trace your ancestry.
Reply:My surname is Flanagan, also Irish, meaning "red" or "ruddy"...I have been trying to find out more about my geneaology as well. I think it is possible your ancestors fought the British, they were enemies for a very long time.
