Hi to all those intersested - First, I'm no genealogist and just really wanted to put this here for my family: I suppose it all started for me / us (the NZ O'S) from this photo:
Once the youngest of us seven kids turned 40 I thought it would be a good idea to put together some sort of family tree for us.
Firstly:
O'Shaughnessy Family Coat of Arms 
The heraldic arms of The O'Shaughnessys are:
Arms: Vert, a tower triple towered argent.
Supporters: Two lions rampant combatant or.
Crest: Over a side helmet an arm embowed the hand grasping a spear pointing downwards.
Motto: Fortis et stabilis (strong and steadfast).
