Everything about Earl Of Tyrconnell totally explained
The
peerage title
Earl of Tyrconnell has been created four times in the
Peerage of Ireland. It was initially created in
1603, for Rory, brother of Prince
Hugh Roe O'Donnell, Prince of
Tyrconnell, only to be attainted in
1614. Following the exile of the Gaelic aristocracy, and the ensuing
Ulster Plantation, it was created a second time in
1661 for
Oliver FitzWilliam, 2nd Viscount FitzWilliam, but died with him in
1667. It was created a third time in
1685 for
Richard Talbot, but was forfeit in
1691 when the earl joined
King James II against the
Glorious Revolution; James also created Talbot as
Duke of Tyrconnell in 1689 as part of the
Jacobite peerage. The title was created a fourth and final time in
1761 for
George Carpenter, 3rd Baron Carpenter. On the death of the fourth earl in
1853 this creation became extinct.
The earl of the first creation (
O'Donnell) had the subsidiary title of
Baron of Donegal for his heir apparent. The earls of the third creation (1685) had the subsidiary titles
Viscount Baltinglass and
Baron Talbotstown, both in the Peerage of Ireland. The earls of the fourth creation had the subsidiary title of
Viscount Carlingford, in addition to the previously held title
Baron Carpenter, which had been created in
1719.
