Here ya go. The Breslin's shield. In old Ireland the Breslin clan were the Brehans, the lawyers of the land. They kept the law strong. Of coarse the Mc Donalds decided to rise up and killed a lot of the Breslin's for their land and to stop the power they had over the country. Our Breslin's went to Derry, also known as Londonderry, in the far north, to get away from the strife. Derry today is a war torn place, still fighting the English for the right to be a soverign land, with out having to share their means. William had lots of brothers and sisters and some (about 3) came to the USA to live in New York. William came to Texas, to fight the Indian war. I'm sure he supported his family with his army pay as that's the way i
t was done. Hope this fills in some holes..
