Francis families appear in the Irish record across various counties as part of the English and Anglo-Irish settler community whose descendants became thoroughly integrated into Irish life. This Irish woven blanket features the Francis family crest woven into the Irish National Tartan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBackground\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs both a given name and a surname, Francis was well established in the English-speaking world by the time families bearing it came to Ireland in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. In Ireland, the name appears across Ulster and Leinster in the records of the plantation era, carried by families who settled alongside Gaelic and Norman-Irish communities and whose children and grandchildren grew up as part of Irish society. The Francis name in the Irish context represents the English-origin strand of the island's complex family heritage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCraftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blanket is woven from premium cotton yarn — the Francis family crest and the Irish National Tartan integrated into the textile during weaving, not applied to the surface.
