Searching ancestry dot com and locating the name connected with family and marriage records, I found the correct spelling of the gaelic name.  Searching for this name in the records at [https://www.s-gabriel.org/ St. Gabriel], is what led to my choice of Sadhbh. 
Better search and fun led to current name registration.
 
Some further research showed that Irish generally didn't list as from a place unless they were a king of that place.  The tendency was to address one's lineage through the patriarchal line, inghean meaning daughter of, and Toirrdhealbhaigh eventually referring to the modern day Terrence...my modern father's name.


I chose the descriptor as a fun bit.  First, there are actually a fair number of Ladies using Sadh and Sadhbh in the SCA.  So to differentiate is proper Irish tradition.  Using hair or size or complexion was the norm, and thus Bheag seemed appropriate.  It means wee or small, diminutive.  After being used as the crenel in the shield wall a number of times for the pikemen to poke over, I felt this was as good a descriptor as any and more provable than many.  I mean, I'm only 5'2"

Eventually, I looked at the Sergeants and Courtiers of the Barony and was inspired to give more to my Barony and Principality.  I have made some armour and begun learning heavy fighting.  In an effort to learn what I'd need to know IF I wanted to apply to the Courtiers, I moved on into heraldry, becoming deputy to Red Flame Herald, and becoming Red Flame Herald myself.  I teach Novus Heraldry, Games and Costuming classes.  I am a ground crew and sometimes rider in our Baronial equestrian fun.  I take my youngest to Archery and Thrown Weapons.  I have been co-steward to 3-4 events, and Steward for a small event called Lions Stage for 2020.  A very different person and set of fun than when I first begun.

As of October AS XVIII, I am now a Courtier of Lions Gate having passed my Trials after two attempts.  While heraldry and other knowledge sets were relatively easy after these many years of study, the bardic and persona pursuits were the most challenging to me.  Bardic, I presented Eriskay Love Lilt which is a plausibly period sean-nós from the Irish roots in Eriskay, despite it's political boundaries in Scotland.  I rewrote an SCA based song I wrote decades ago into a similar style for my created piece.  It is called [[Sweet Sorrow]]

At the Investiture of Tir Righ, on February 16th, CE 2019, I was taken on as Protégé to Mestr [[Garet Doiron]], Order of the Pelican, by the simplicity of his dropping a yellow baldric upon me and directing me to keep working.  This was much in the style of lassoing a mustang in the wild.  Much dust was kicked up as I scrambled off to complete my heraldic duties before armouring up as a temporary Squire to Sir William of the Battered Helm, to whom Mestr Garet is fully Squired, and trying my sword and shield against other Squires in the Tourney that day.  I had 4 wins to my name on that day!  I humbly admit my pride at these small successes.

Better search and fun led to current name registration.


Story Time

See Sadhbh Bheag's Backstory for how it all started!

Once I was given my Arms, it occurred to me there was a reason we choose a period and place for our personae. I began looking into what a Lady (Bantiarna) would be doing in Ireland c1450. I wanted to enjoy the pass-time while learning something I could then pass on and teach. I have a love of turning threads into things and began looking into various aspects of cloth and textiles creations. My main question was, if a bantiarna was in the fibre arts as a career, what part of it would I be interested in doing? Then I realized I wouldn't know until I tried it all! So I began learning inkle loom weaving and reminded myself how to drop spin wool. Then card and prep the wool. Then I was given the inspiration to look into flax. And that is when I met The Honourable Lord Topher. I put out a request on the Booke of Faces to see if any would help answer questions as I'd never seen anything but wool. He answered and invited me to come to the next event and sit to chat. As I sat there, I had to focus super hard to not fan-girl all over him. As we chatted, I realized just how much our minds and thoughts on this were alike. Most events, from then on, I would find reasons to chat with him on fibers. He knew soo much I wanted to learn. Projects I wanted to do, he'd done once before and he encouraged me to do it too. I told him of my thoughts for nettlecloth, and he found me more research and inspired me to what will be a grand and long term project I have in mind. He gifted me some flax he'd grown himself that I may learn to spin longer staples and work with something less processed than the commercially available flax roving. Sadly, he was taken from us before I could do more than a small nettle spinning presentation at Tir Righ Arts and Sciences. I will never forget and I will be ever grateful for his inspiration and encouragement.

Eventually, I looked at the Sergeants and Courtiers of the Barony and was inspired to give more to my Barony and Principality. I have made some armour and begun learning heavy fighting. In an effort to learn what I'd need to know IF I wanted to apply to the Courtiers, I moved on into heraldry, becoming deputy to Red Flame Herald, and becoming Red Flame Herald myself. I teach Novus Heraldry, Games and Costuming classes. I am a ground crew and sometimes rider in our Baronial equestrian fun. I take my youngest to Archery and Thrown Weapons. I have been co-steward to 3-4 events, and Steward for a small event called Lions Stage for 2020. A very different person and set of fun than when I first begun.

As of October AS XVIII, I am now a Courtier of Lions Gate having passed my Trials after two attempts. While heraldry and other knowledge sets were relatively easy after these many years of study, the bardic and persona pursuits were the most challenging to me. Bardic, I presented Eriskay Love Lilt which is a plausibly period sean-nós from the Irish roots in Eriskay, despite it's political boundaries in Scotland. I rewrote an SCA based song I wrote decades ago into a similar style for my created piece. It is called Sweet Sorrow

Fealty

At The Trials of Lions Gate, on September 16th, CE 2018, I was presented by my Sponsor to the Courtiers, HL Wulfstan Hrafnsson, to the Baron Uilliam of Lions Gate to submit my application to the Courtiers of Lions Gate.

At the Investiture of Tir Righ, on February 16th, CE 2019, I was taken on as Protégé to Mestr Garet Doiron, Order of the Pelican, by the simplicity of his dropping a yellow baldric upon me and directing me to keep working. This was much in the style of lassoing a mustang in the wild. Much dust was kicked up as I scrambled off to complete my heraldic duties before armouring up as a temporary Squire to Sir William of the Battered Helm, to whom Mestr Garet is fully Squired, and trying my sword and shield against other Squires in the Tourney that day. I had 4 wins to my name on that day! I humbly admit my pride at these small successes.

At Lions Gate Champions' Tourney, on June 2nd, CE 2019, I did take Máirghréad inghean Raghnaill as my student, for a year and a day, in order to mentor her and help her find her place and fun in the SCA. To introduce her to people, places and projects that she finds happiness and confidence. To be a confidante and friend. July CE 2020, we did renew this relationship for another year and a day. We continue our fealty as she grows. She includes Event Stewarding Canterbury Fayre 2022 for Lions Gate in her service record.

At Baroness' Inspiration, on November 16th, CE 2019, I did take Sæthryth aet Apeleia as my student, for a year and a day, in order to mentor her and help her find her place and fun in the SCA. To introduce her to people, places and projects that she finds happiness and confidence. To be a confidante and friend and enabler of Arts and research! While this fealty has ended, our friendship continues and I happily offer any advice or support as she may need. As of January 2022, she is the Baronial Chatelaine, has taught a medieval math class in a Lions Den Zoom, amongst other services and embroidery arts.

At Baroness' Inspiration, on November 20th, CE 2021, I did give my oath as Man-At-Arms to Sergeant Brynja Kennari Kortsdottir to learn the ways of the Sword and Sergeantry of the Barony of Lions Gate.

At Golden Swan, on October 9, 2022, I took Hallbjorn Skjalda-Hrafnsson of Appledore as my student for a year and a day to be friend, guide, confidante.
