Eoin was born on Stardate 60238 in Shannon, Ireland, the middle of five children. He grew up on a small farm not far outside the city, where he helped the hired hands with much of the work that needed to be done. His father, whose family had owned the property since at least the mid-20th century, split his time between managing the farm and travelling all across Earth for concerts, as he was an accomplished cello player. His mother was a full time painter. She insisted that her children sit for a portrait once every year, and Eoin still has a copy of his last portrait. It was his mother, too who taught him how to speak Irish Gaelic, and always insisted he use it when speaking to her family.

As the middle child, Eoin was passed over many times, and while his older and younger siblings were sent off to study the arts either with their parents or talented artists nearby, Eoin was many times left to his own devices with the farmhands. Many people thought that he would be the one to inherit the farm someday, but that changed when he joined Starfleet.
