Tirkennedy
Tirkennedy () is a barony in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. To its west lies Lower Lough Erne and south Upper Lough Erne, and it is bordered by seven other baronies: Clanawley and Magheraboy to the west; Lurg and Omagh East to the north; Clogher to the east; Magherastephana and Knockninny to the south. History Despite its name, Tirkennedy has nothing to do with the modern personal name of Kennedy, which derives from ''Cennétig'' (ugly/rough headed). Rather it takes its name from the epithet of Fergus son of Cremthann, the eponymous ancestor of the ''Ui Chremthainn'', the predominant tribe of the western Airgialla. Fergus lived in the late fifth century AD and was known as ''Cennfhota'' (long-head). His descendants became known as the ''Ui Chennfhota'', with the kingdom of ''Tir Cennfhota'' receiving its first mention in the Annals in 1349. Chieftains of Tirkennedy at the beginning of the Maguire’s reign over Fermanagh in the late 1200s were the Magunshinan, originally M ...

Magherastephana
Magherastephana is a barony in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. To its south-west lies Upper Lough Erne, and it is bordered by five other baronies: Tirkennedy to the west; Knockninny to the south-west; and Coole to the south; Clankelly to the south-east; and Clogher to the north-west. History The barony of Magherastephana is first recorded in 1520 in the Annals of the Four Masters, as ''Machaire Stefanach'', and in Annals of Ulster in 1530 as ''(an) Machaire Steabhanach''. The origins of the name however are unknown. Irish scholar John O'Donovan alleged that it was named after a ''Steafán'' (Stephen) who was the son of ''Odhar'', the progenitor of the Maguires, and a figure from the 10th century. The problem however is that the name Stephen didn't arrive into Ireland until the 12th century when the Normans brought it in with them, and in which case came in the form of ''Estievne'', which became Gaelicised as ''Stiabhna'', ''Sdíomnha'', ''Stiana'', ''Steimhín'' and ''Slei ...
