Deehan pub
Banagher (Offaly)
Is it still in existence in Antrim? I heard there was a pub there by that surname. Would love a pic of it and maybe the owners as well. Curious if they are relatives.
Thanks!

There are an awful lot of pubs in Co. Antrim. However I am not aware of one named Deehan’s. Of course there might be one owned by a Deehan but trading under a different name. That would be harder to find. Googling it doesn’t come up with any suggestions though.
Deehan is not a common name in Antrim. Searching the 1911 Irish census, there wasn’t anybody of that name born in the county at all. (There was just 1 Deehan family but that was a police officer from Co. Derry).

There is a Deehan pub in Derry city but it is spelt O'Diochan's, (Gaelic). Deehan is a popular name in and around Derry but also in Sligo, Lough Talt, Aclare, and also in Easkey and Culleens, Co.Sligo.
I understand O'Diochan's bar in Derry is very nice and well worth a visit.
Good Luck in your search.
