Patrick Woulfe renders as “Black of the Slaney,” after the Leinster river. Older records write it O Dowlaney and O Dulany, and the same Irish name also gave the spellings Delany, Deleany and Laney. Every piece in this range carries the Delaney name.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWoulfe describes the Ó Dubhshláine as a numerous family of Leix, now County Laois, once chiefs of Coill Uachtarach, the “upper wood” at the foot of Slieve Bloom. The territory survives as the barony of Upperwoods, named in the topographical poems of about 1400 and counted in later centuries as part of Upper Ossory. Laois gave the name Dean Patrick Delany, whose house at Delville in Glasnevin welcomed Jonathan Swift, and Bishop Daniel Delany of Mountrath, who refounded the Brigidine Sisters in 1807. The Arklow-born runner Ronnie Delany carried the Delany spelling to the Olympic 1500 m title at Melbourne in 1956.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Delaney family crest is set on the Irish National Tartan across five pieces: a woven cotton blanket in three sizes with a fringed edge, a lighter 50″ × 60″ printed polyester throw, an 11oz ceramic accent mug, a Christmas ornament in a polished silver portrait frame, and an 18″ × 21″ wall pennant that hangs from a wooden dowel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Upperwoods chiefs, the Brigidine bishop and the Melbourne champion all have their place in our \u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/delaney-irish-surname-history-origins\"\u003eDelaney Irish surname history\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"delaney-coat-of-arms-irish-tartan-christmas-ornament-3963603","title":"Delaney Irish Family Crest Framed Christmas Ornament","description":"\u003cp\u003eA small keepsake for the branch, this ornament sets the Delaney family crest on the Irish National Tartan inside a polished silver portrait frame, with a satin ribbon included for hanging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.25” x 2.31” framed ornament\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelaney family crest on the Irish National Tartan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolished silver portrait-frame finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHole and satin ribbon included for hanging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-sided print\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBishop Daniel Delany, born near Mountrath in County Laois in 1747, spelled the name without the middle e; he refounded the Brigidine Sisters in 1807 and founded the Patrician Brothers at Tullow in 1808.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTuck it into a Christmas card for the Delaney relative who keeps the family history, or hang it beside the first ornament on a new couple’s tree.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MyDesigns","offers":[{"title":"3.25” x 2.31”","offer_id":46719900680422,"sku":"MD-114579450","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0437\/3731\/7538\/files\/Delaney-Coat-Of-Arms-Irish-Tartan-Christmas-Ornament-Celtic-Ancestry-Gifts-37000775565542.jpg?v=1778660455"},{"product_id":"delaney-coat-of-arms-irish-tartan-blanket-4378215","title":"Delaney Irish Family Crest Printed Throw Blanket","description":"\u003cp\u003eEveryday warmth with the family name on it: on this printed throw the Delaney crest sits over the Irish National Tartan on one side, with a plain white reverse.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50\" × 60\" throw blanket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft, lightweight 100% polyester\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrinted on one side with a white reverse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVibrant, fade-resistant color\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHemmed edges\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelaney family crest on the Irish National Tartan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eDulany is one of Woulfe’s older English forms of Ó Dubhshláine, and Daniel Dulany, born in the Laois barony of Upperwoods in 1685, sailed to Maryland in 1703 and rose from indentured servant to the colony’s Governor’s Council.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA cozy present for a Delaney grandparent’s favorite chair, or a first-winter housewarming gift for a Delaney in a new home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MyDesigns","offers":[{"title":"50\" × 60\"","offer_id":47253775483110,"sku":"MD-128434466","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0437\/3731\/7538\/files\/Delaney-Coat-Of-Arms-Irish-Tartan-Blanket-Celtic-Ancestry-Gifts-37703357628646.jpg?v=1778682201"},{"product_id":"delaney-surname-irish-heraldry-woven-blanket-4648602","title":"Delaney Irish Family Crest Woven Blanket | Irish National Tartan","description":"\u003cp\u003eMade as an heirloom for the Delaney home, this blanket is woven from cotton yarn, with the family crest and the Irish National Tartan formed inside the cloth itself and a traditional fringe along the edges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% cotton woven blanket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelaney family crest design on the Irish National Tartan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraditional woven fringe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in 52″ × 37″, 60″ × 50″ and 80″ × 60″\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: gentle machine wash cold, tumble dry low\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrape it over a sofa, a reading chair or the foot of a bed, or set it out as part of a family display.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Ó Dubhshláine were a numerous County Laois family, formerly chiefs of Coill Uachtarach, now the barony of Upperwoods, at the foot of Slieve Bloom.
