Prof. Conel William O’Donel Long Alexander 1879 – 1920
info from family tree for better legibility he was Hugh's father
Professor of Engineering, Univ College, Cork. O’Donel in his name may be a form of the ODonnel in his mother’s name unless the latter was
misspelled in the census entry. However, O’Donel is thought to be the correct form and it has a long history. One ref is a country house in County Mayo which leads to the Tyrconnells known to be in the missing family tree. You can see O’Neill in Encylopaedia Brittanica . Teresa remembers her father talking about “Neill of the Nine Hostages” (+ Conel of Tyrconnell).
