It is thought that Ó Rathaille was born in Screathan an Mhil (Scrahanaveal), in the Sliabh Luachra region of County Kerry into a relatively prosperous family. His father died when Aodhagán was still young leaving his mother in good circumstances. However, his mother relinquished their property and they then moved to Cnoc an Chorrfhiaidh (Stagmount) where Aodhagán lived for a considerable time under the chiefdom of the Mac Cárthaigh (MacCarthys). It was likely here that Aodhagán was trained in the bardic arts. He acquired an excellent education in the bardic school of the Egan family (ollamhs to the Mac Cárthaigh Mór) and was taught Latin and English as well as Irish literature and history. He became a respected ollamh and traveled to the homes of the Old Irish chiefs where he was treated as an honoured guest. He also worked as a scribe.
