Muirenn Laverty

Muirenn Laverty, otherwise called Muirenn the Fair One, was a selkie woman who married into the Laverty family. She went devoutly to Mass all her life, and had no fear of the priest, but was never without her precious sealskin cloak. Her grandson was Daniel Laverty, and due to the old bargain between the families, his younger son Richard was next to wed a selkie-maid, Maeve, who may or may not have been related directly to Muirenn.
