I'm not the author of this publication .Respectively everyone who reads it
will form their own opinion. What makes R1B1C7 so exiting it is allegedly
connected to a real person and thousands of articles and web sites pertaining to
him .The fertile man raises more questions than answers.

_High King Niall: the most fertile man in Ireland_
(http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/newspapers/sunday_times/ireland/article788652.ece)

Powerful men in medieval Ireland had many wives and children. Divorce and
concubinage were allowed and illegitimate sons were claimed and had rights under
law.
“Under Brehon law a man had a first wife, a live-in concubine, a live-out
concubine and someone he just casually met and so on,” said Simms. “In each of
these cases a child could take the father’s name.”
Modern surnames tracing their ancestry to Niall include Gallagher, Boyle, O’
Donnell, O’Doherty and O’Kane. Even in the 15th century, Niall’s descendants
were producing offspring in abundance. Lord Turlough O’Donnell, who died in
1423, had 18 sons with 10 different women and had 59 grandsons in the male
line.
