Ricard Ó Cuairsge Bourke, 7th Mac William Íochtar (; ; died 1479) was an Irish chieftain and noble. Background A son of Edmund na Féasóige de Búrca, 4th Mac William Íochtar (d.1458), Ricard was tánaiste for his uncle, Risdeárd de Búrca, 6th Mac William Íochtar (d.1473), who had succeeded his brother Tomás Óg de Búrca, 5th Mac William Íochtar in 1460.

The Anglo-Normans (, ) were the medieval ruling class in the Kingdom of England following the Norman Conquest.

After the conquest the victorious Normans formed a ruling class in England, distinct from (although intermarrying with) the native Anglo-Saxon and Celtic populations. Over time, their language evolved from the continental Old Norman to the distinct Anglo-Norman language. Anglo-Normans quickly established control over all of England, as well as Norman invasion of Wales, parts of Wales (the Cambro-Normans, Welsh-Normans). After 1130, parts of southern and eastern Scotland came under Anglo-Norman rule (the Scoto-Norman, Scots-Normans), in return for their support of David I of Scotland#Government and feudalism, David I's conquest.

Viscount Mayo
Viscount Mayo () is a title that has been created twice in the Peerage of Ireland, both times for members of the Bourke family. The first creation came in 1627 in favour of Tiobóid na Long Bourke, also known as Theobald Bourke. He was the son of Sir Richard Bourke, 18th lord of Mac William Iochtar (Lower Mac William), and Gráinne O'Malley. Miles, the 2nd Viscount, was created a baronet in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia in c. 1638. His son Theobald, the third Viscount, was also created a Baronet in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia in c. 1638 (although there are no records of this creation in the Great Seal).

The murders in 1642 became known as the "Shrule massacre", but it seems that Lord Mayo had done his best to prevent them. The third Viscount's daughter Maud married Col. John Browne, ancestor of the Marquesses of Sligo. On the eighth Viscount's death ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
