Because of the number of variations in the way the Driscoll name was written over the years, this index has also includes the name "Drisdel" and its variants. Although frequently this spelling indicates a family of French origin with no known connection to the O'Driscoll Clan, occasionally a record-keeper would spell the Driscoll name as Drisdel. Genealogists and historians using this information are encouraged to perform additional research to ascertain if a specific "Drisdel" variation recorded here is actually of Irish origin or French.
