Coming from a poor Gaelic family in Fiannria, Padraig O'Seaghdha saw no life for himself in his small inland village. Buying the only ticket he could afford, he immigrated to Burgundie in 1858. He was fascinated by the harbor and the ships and when he arrived in Kongerhus he took a job as a shipwright. He did not take to the work well, as he was often caught sketching instead of working and was soon fired. To make money for food he began selling his sketches. He was offered a job as a draughtsman for a small firm and soon became the preeminent designer. In 1873, he founded O'Shea Hull Design (having simplified the spelling of his name) with two other draughtsmen. In 1881, O'Shea Hull Design bought two fledgling merchant houses to become the O'Shea Shipping Company. This acquisition lead to the specialization of O'Shea's ship design strategy to merchant cargo ships. Blustered by the rising influence of the [[Merchant Marine of Burgundie]], O'Shea's business director, Seamus Hannigan began buying up smaller design houses and merchant concerns. By 1903 the O'Shea Shipping Company was the largest naval architecture firm in Burgundie. | Coming from a poor Gaelic family in Fiannria, Padraig O'Seaghdha saw no life for himself in his small inland village.
