So apparently I have a direct link to Niall, wich is interesting because my older brothers name is Neil. But my grandparents sent him to a foster family and they fried his brain on lithium so he doesn't remember anything. 

I have a little sister named Cynthia also. I am the middle my name is Devon.

23andme said I share a direct link to Niall of the Nine Hostages.

I have always felt like a prisoner here in America and the truth has never been told to me. I was stolen from my dad and forced to live a life without him. 

I am trying to find my true home or any information. Thanks in advance
My name is Devon Lee Maher
My haplogroup is H
I was born 2 August 1994 in Michigan
Dunno if that helps
My brother Neil was born in April 
And my sister Cynthia was born in February

Hi Devon,

Thanks for taking the time to write to us here! Your potential link with the legendary high king of Ireland sounds really interesting

As I'm not familiar with genetic genealogy, I can only suggest resources based on your last name and any other information you could find on your father's side.

The name Maher is often found on the church records in Ireland, but you'd need an approximate year or county to potentially learn more about your family tree. Here are more resources that could be of use, such as the ship records, since you are based in the US.

Best of luck!
Antoine
