William Drennan: Drennan’s Ancestors were the Irish clan Ó Draighnáin, Anglicized to Drennan meaning “grandson of blackthorn”. William was son to Reverend Thomas Drennan (1696–1768), minister of Belfast’s First Presbyterian Church on Rosemary Street, where William was born in 1754.[3] Thomas Drennan was an educated man from the University of Glasgow and was ordained to the congregation of Holywood, Co. Down in 1731. Drennan was heavily influenced by his father, whose religious convictions served as the foundation for his own radical political ideas. His sister, Martha, married fellow future United Irishman Samuel McTier in 1773.
