Henry Ó Cormacáin, last Abbot of Clonfert, fl. c.1534-c.1567. Ó Cormacáin was a member of an eccleiastical family based in Síol Anmchadha, in what is now south-east County Galway. Two members of the family served as Bishop of Clonfert - Muirchertach Ua Carmacáin (died 1203) and Uilliam Ó Cormacáin (died 1398). The family appear to have founded an abbey in the parish of Abbeygormican, from which it takes its name, sometime prior to 1309. Writing from Loughrea on 5 November 1838, John O'Donovan gave the following account of Abbot Henry Ó Cormacáin:
Clonfert Abbey eventually came to be held by the Earl of Clanricarde. O'Donovan noted that the surname Cormican was then still in existence in the parish of Abbeygormican. ==See also== * Ua Corcrain of Clonfert 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Henry Ó Cormacáin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
