Dear Sir - In reply to your enquiry I must tell you that McAninch is a rare name in


Ireland; it does not appear at all in the current telephone directories for the Republic


or the six counties of Northern Ireland. McAinsh does, once, in the case of a firm of


sawmillers in Co. Tipperary, established I believe by a Scotsman of that name.


McAinsh is a synonym of McAninch, and both derive from McInnes (in Irish Gaelic


Mac Aonghuis), the name of a well known Scottish clan. I have not met the name in


early Irish records. I happen to have here the complete birth registrations for the years


1864, ’65, ’66 and in those three years there are 3 entries for McAninch, all at


Ballymoney, Co. Antrim, in which area there are a number of names of Scottish origin.


Yours truly, /s/ E. MacLysaght, Chairman               P.S. McAinsh does not


appear at all in the registrations referred to, and McInnes only once, in Belfast.


[1] Frank Leo McAninch, born 1930, Nebraska, died 2018, San Diego, California;


Lt. Cmdr, U.S. Navy, Korea and Vietnam (a different Frank McAninch, not this editor)
