http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/O%27Donnell_Clan
==================================================================
Coat of Arms
In Hoc Signo Vinces ... meaning "under this sign you will conquer".
=================================================================
O'Donnell (Irish: Ó Donaill or Ó Domhnaill), which is derived from the forename Domhnaill (meaning "world ruler", Rex Mundi in Latin, Modern Irish spelling, Dónall) were an ancient and powerful Irish family, kings, princes, and lords of Tír Chonaill (rendered in English as Tyrconnell or Tyrconnel, known today as County Donegal) in early times, and the chief allies and sometimes rivals of the O'Neills in Ulster.
==================================================================
The jewel in the O'Donnell crown was Donegal Castle, one of seven O'Donnell castles, and now a national monument...
... the history of the O'Donnells is for the most part a record of clan warfare with their powerful neighbours...
