I've realised that I've let on very little information for
Miss Bronagh O'cealleigh so here is a little fact file on my OC. Please let me know if you'd like one of these for any one of my other own characters!
\——————————————————————————————————/
Bronagh O'Cealleigh was born to an Irish Father, Seamus O'Cealleigh and a Cornish mother, Dorothy Penrose on the 17th March, 1869. Bronagh's mother abandoned her and her father when she was 4 and moved to Galway. Due to her Father's busy working hours at docks, she spent most of her childhood in the company of her Grandfather. Her Granfather, Joseph O'cealleigh, would teach her how to cook with fresh caught food and how to catch that food. He would sing sea shanties to her and tell her stories of his career as a skipper in the Navy.
After her Granfather's death in 1877, her Father and her moved away from Ballynagalloglagh (Milford, County Donegal) to try their hand at potato farming, this was where Bronagh and her half-brother Sean would grow up and play together. Bronagh and her father often had disagreements due to their diffrent views on life, society and equality. Her father developed a heavy criminal record and, when Bronagh was ten (though she believes that she moved when she was seven), they moved to America in search of the freedom of the western frontier.
Upon arriving in America, Bronagh met another young girl at the docks - about 15 or so, named Victoria Adams. She also came across a young dilinquent in town, named Nellie Kurbine. The girls were insperable and were under the care of Black Belle for some time whilst Seamus gathered together other gunslingers from around the country.
The gang was renowned for being one of the most ruthless in the land, killing amd robbing many folk around the country.
In 1884, things take a turn for the worst when Bronagh, her father, Micah Bell, and Carter Penworth return to find the gang's camp charred and burnt the ground. The member's corpses were scattered around, with Bronagh's best friends no where to be found.
After the disaster, Bronagh and her Father set up a ranch just near Armadillo. They farmed horses, mainly Mustangs, Missouri Fox Trotters, and working horses. Bronagh bred and trained all the horses at the ranch - her most prized horse, a Missouri with a black body and white face, was particularly perfect in her eyes. As a 25th birthday gift, Bronagh gifted the horse, named Baylock, to Micah Bell in 1885.
Due to an unsavoury act, made towards Colm O'Driscoll's sister by Seamus O'Cealliegh, the O'Driscolls attacked the O'cealliegh ranch, they outnumbered the Father-Daughter team and Seamus sacrificed himself for the hopeful safety of his Daughter.
