Flinn (surname)

The Flinn or O'Flinn were rulers in Gaelic Ireland’s Ulidia (kingdom). The O'Flinn were the chiefs of the Hy-Tuirtre, a people seated on the east side of the River Bann and Lough Neagh in what today is Northern Ireland's County Antrim and was, then, portion of the Kingdom of Ulidia. The Flinn claim descent from Fiachra Tort, the grandson of the Irish king Colla Uais, who seized territory of the Ulaidh in the 4th century A.D.
