{"product_id":"mcgrath-surname-irish-heritage-woven-blanket-4698125","title":"McGrath Irish Woven Blanket | Family Crest Tartan Throw","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe McGrath name in Ireland is a Gaelic Irish surname — Mag Raith in Irish, son of Rath, a personal name meaning grace or prosperity — found across several provinces, with significant branches in County Donegal in Ulster and in County Tipperary and the Munster counties. The McGrath families were part of the Gaelic communities of both north and south, their name appearing in the records of both Ulster and Munster through the medieval and early modern periods. This Irish woven blanket features the McGrath family crest against the Irish National Tartan, honouring a name carried with pride across the Irish provinces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHistory \u0026amp; Heritage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Donegal branch of the McGrath family were hereditary poets and historians to the Maguire lords of Fermanagh, their scholarly role in the Gaelic cultural world of Ulster connecting them to the great literary tradition of the north. In Munster, the McGrath families were part of the Tipperary and Waterford Gaelic communities. Miler McGrath, the extraordinary sixteenth-century bishop who served both Catholic and Protestant churches in the turbulent Reformation era, was among the most colourful figures to bear this name. Today McGrath is widespread across Ireland and the diaspora, a name rooted in both the Gaelic north and south.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCraftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis blanket is woven from premium cotton yarn — the McGrath family crest and the Irish National Tartan formed within the textile structure during weaving, not applied to the surface.
