Lordship of Molahiffe : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lordship of Molahiffe
The Gaelic-Irish Lordship of Molahiffe (''Irish: Magh ui Fhlaithimh'') was created in the 14th century by Eóghan (Owen) Mór MacCarthy, Lord of Coshmaing, as a grant to his son, Donal.〔MacCarthy (Mór); ''MacCarthys of Munster''; 1921; pp. 266-267.〕 Molahiffe Castle was also the seat of The Paramount Lordship of Cosmaigne (''Ard Tiarnas na Coshmaing'').〔"Journal of the Royal Society of Antiquaries of Ireland", Vol.XXXVII, Part II, 1907, p.2〕 The Gaelic title, Lord (''Tiarna''/Baron) of Molahiffe (in legalese, an incorporeal hereditament), should not be confused with the Baronetcy of Molahiffe, which was an English title held by some of the Browne family (Earls of Kenmare) after they took possession of former MacCarthy lands at the beginning of the seventeenth century. Alternate spellings of Molahiffe include "Mullahiffe," and, "Moylahiffe." ==Location== The area of the original Lordship of Molahiffe was within the territory of the Paramount Lordship of Cosmaigne/''Coshmaing'' (specifically, the area known as East Cosmaigne), and descended from the original appanage of ''Sliocht Eóghan na Coshmaing''. Although, in the present day, no territory attaches to the title of Lord (Baron) of Molahiffe, it was, in the 14th-century, located in the Kingdom of Desmond, in modern-day County Kerry, Barony of Magunihy. The northern boundary of the Lordship of Molahiffe (as well as the Kingdom of Desmond, Coshmaing, and the Barony of Magunihy) was the River Maine, which flows into Dingle Bay at Castlemaine Harbor. However, as Butler notes, "The two projections of the barony to the north of the Maine are in Molahiffe...."〔Butler, W. F., M.A.; "Two Kerry Baronies in the Sixteenth Century"; ''Journal of the Cork Historical and Archaeological Society''; Part 1, Vol. XXXXIII, No, 137; January–June 1928; p.4〕 (see map). The area of Molahiffe projecting to the north of the River Maine (''Maing'') extended to the ridgeline of the Slieve Mish mountain range,〔Lewis, Samuel; ''A Topographical Dictionary of Ireland''; London; 1837; p.377〕 which partly bisects the Dingle Peninsula.
