The family settled in County Galway and became one of the Fourteen Tribes of Galway, the exclusive group of merchant and landowning families whose names — Athy, Blake, Bodkin, Browne, D'Arcy, Deane, Font, French, Joyce, Kirwan, Lynch, Martin, Morris, and Skerrett — defined the social, commercial, and political life of Galway city from the medieval period through the seventeenth century.
