Overview

Dubhaltach Mac Fhirbhisigh states in a poem written in 1417 that, Coolcarney "embraced the territory between Beel Lasa (or Foxford) and the Brosnach river in Castleconnor."[6] Historically there were four hereditary tribes of the area: O'Fionain, O'Rothlain, O'Tuathalain, and O'Cuinn, with the O'Rothlain being its chieftain.[7][8][9] Over time the region was reduced to an area within the modern parishes of Attymass and Kilgarvan.[1][6][10] Further description is given by John O'Donovan:

“Cuil-Cearnadha is called Calraidhe Cuile from its being in the corner or angle of Fith-Gathlaidh; and, if the learned say truly, it is to it the appellation of Calraidhe Innse-Nisc should be given.”[9]
