This is the very first work to trace the history of the Marmion family in Ireland. And it does so with remarkable detail and historic references, from the arrival of the progenitor Marmion in 1172 until the present. The author acknowledges that as a first work it undoubtedly can be improved upon, as additional details/searches come to light. A limited 'coffee table' size book in 250 copies. There is also some detail on Marmions of Normandy, England, Australia, etc., and an extensive bibliography. The research was conducted in Ireland as the author is an Irish citizen and living in Ireland at the time of publication in 1997. He is also the author of numerous published historical articles and several other books, including KNIGHTHOODS IN IRELAND and GAELIC TITLES AND FORMS OF ADDRESS.
